Hand Knit Socks

New Sock Pattern is Up

Based on my last blog post, one might think I never would have published another pattern.  Alas, enough people have asked me about my standard sock pattern, I thought I’d publish it.

QueerJoe’s Standard Toe-Up Sock Pattern

So here’s where you can get the pattern, but a couple of things:

  1. I opted to price the pattern at $2.99, since writing the pattern, putting it up on Ravelry and answering questions all takes the same effort as any of my costlier patterns.
  2. The pattern is only for one size sock – About U.S. men’s shoe size 9 – 10.5.
  3. All proceeds from the sock pattern will be donated to the Men’s Spring Knitting Retreat Scholarship Fund.
  4. If you would like the pattern and you don’t have the means to pay for it, please contact me privately at queerjoe@comcast.net and I will be glad to give you a coupon to get the pattern for free.

I decided that the Noro Silk Garden Sock was a terrible choice for the pattern photograph of the finished sock, so I opted to start another pair of socks!

I think the neon green will look great against the drab textured browns of the sock yarn.  And as soon as I finish this pair, I’ll update the pattern with the new photo.

Jenny writes, “Did you knit and design the green toque with the ear flaps? My hubby would love one of these! I’d love the pattern.”

I did design it, and since you asked, I published the pattern for free on Ravelry.
