Socks “Hilma”
Crochet these cozy and warm socks!
Crochet these cozy socks that keep your feet warm. These socks have a beautiful pattern and match the pattern of the “Hulda” sweater. The socks can be customized in size and made smaller or larger. There is a slightly more difficult part in the pattern, the heel, but there are pictures to follow along the way. You will need MYO Basic wool, crochet hook 5 mm and stitch marker (stitch markers/yarn ends/hairpins). In the pictures we have used the color “beige”.
Yarn Consumption: 2 skeins of MYO Basic wool for size 38. The yarn consumption depends on how tight you crochet.
Note that we in this instruction uses videos from out technique library.
This is what you need:
Here's how to do it
Before starting this pattern, read through all parts to get an overview of the pattern. This pattern is crocheted both in a spiral and in rows. The parts that is crocheted in rows are the heel and ribs. You can easily customize the size of the socks. If the socks are too short before the heel, then continue to repeat round 4 and lap 5 until the part covers the top of your foot. If you think the socks feel too tight, crochet with a larger crochet hook (6mm). If you think the socks are too wide (if you crochet loosely) then crochet with a smaller crochet needle (4mm). The sock corresponds to size 38. The crochet property for an area of 10 x 10 cm is 14 herringbone double crochets/12 rounds. The heel is crocheted in rows, then we switch back to rounds (continuing where we left off) to finish the ankle and leg part. You can decide the height of the sock yourself by adjusting the number of rounds according to the desired height. Hope you will be happy with your result! /Johanna

INFO:
If the sock feels too loose or tight, you can switch to either a smaller or larger crochet hook. Chain 3 count as one double crochet.
At the end of each round, turn your work and when you turn the work, turn the work from the right to the left side, see the video if in doubt.
Toe and Foot
We start by crocheting the toe part on the socks. After round 4, you can measure your work and see if you need to crochet more rounds to get a larger size.
Start by making a magic ring.
Round 1 (right side): Chain 3. Crochet 9 herringbone double crochets into the magic ring. Tighten the hole so that the hole closes, using the small end of yarn that remains from the start. Finish round 1 with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain you did at the beginning. Turn the work over as described above. A total of 10 herringbone double crochets (9 herringbone souble crochet + the chain at the beginning). A tip is to mark this slip stitch that you crocheted, use a yarn end, hair needle or marker.
If you are not sure how to crochet herringbone double cropchets, see the video below. The video also shows how to crochet a magic ring, chain stitches and how to finish and start the next round.
Round 2 (wrong side): Chain 3. Skip the slip stitches we did on previous round (see picture below). If you have marked the slip mask from round 1, you will easily see which stitch you skip. You can remove the marker immediately after you crochet the first herringbone double crochet.
Crochet 2 herringbone double crochet in the following stitch, thus two in the same stitch. Repeat this 8 times, i.e. 2 herringbone double crochet in each stitch the whole round. You have crocheted 18 herringbone double crochet plus the chain, which counts as a double crochet. You will now crochet the 20th herringbone double crochet in the round. This is done in the same stitch as you did the 3 chain stitches (see picture or video above). Finish the round with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain you made at the beginning. If you want, you can mark the slip stitch so it will be easier to see where to start the next round. Turn.
In total, you have 20 stitches on your round. See below pictures for guide.
Round 3 (right side): Chain 3.
Skip the slip stitch from previous round, just like we did on the previous round. Crochet 2 herringbone double crochet in the following stitch. In the stitch after, you crochet 1 herringbone double crochet. After that, crochet 2 herringbone double crochet in the same stitch again. So every two stitches you make two herringbone double crochet and every other stitch you make 1 herringbone double crochet. Repeat until you are at the end.
Crochet the last herringbone double crochet in the same stitch as you made your 3 chain stitches. Finish with 1 slip mask in the 3rd chain you made at the beginning. Turn. In total, you have 30 stitches on the round.
Round 4 (wrong side): Chain 3. Skip the slip stitch from previous round. Crochet a herringbone double crochet in each stitch all the way round. Make 1 more herringbone double crochet in the same stitch as you did your 3 chain stitches. Finish with 1 slip mask in the 3rd chain you made at the beginning. Turn. In total, you have 30 stitches on the round.
Round 5 (Right Side): Chain 3. Skip the slip stitch from previous round. Crochet a herringbone double crochet in each stitch all the way round. Make 1 more herringbone double crochet in the same stitch as you did 3 chain stitches. Finish with 1 slip mask in the 3rd chain you made at the beginning. Turn. In total, you have 30 stitches on the round.
Round 5-13: Repeat round 4-5. Repeat until you are ready to start with the heel. Measure on your foot.
NOTE! If you want a larger size, repeat round 4 and turn 5 a number of times until the crocheted part covers the top of your foot and you are ready to crochet the heel.
