Simple Boot Socks A Smashlee Stitches Pattern

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

16” circular needles or double point needles in size US 8 (5mm) or needle size needed to achieve gauge
1.5 skeins of Sirdar Crofter chunky yarn (approx. 120 yards) in a colour of your choice.
A tapestry needle to weave in your ends.
1 stitch maker.

Gauge is important for this product so I highly suggest making a sample swatch before beginning your project.

Gauge was measured in stockinette stich. 4” = 12sts or 1”=3sts

SIZING

These boot socks measure 7.5“ tall and 5.5 “ wide when lying flat. They are sized to fit small to medium size adult calves. If you need smaller or larger size you can add or subtract stitches by 4 . (example: cast on stitches for a 40 stitches larger size. 32 stitches for a smaller size) . Keep in mind the boot socks do stretch so, the average size should fit most.

THE PATTERN

Make 2:

Cast on 36 stitches using long tail cast on.

Check to see your stiches are not twisted, and once all your stitches are pointing in the right direction, place your stitch marker and start round one.
