Stay Cozy House Socks are all about ultimate comfort. At a DK / light worsted weight, these socks will keep your feet warm & cozy on a chilly day.
This pattern features texture stripes of varying rib stitches – emphasized by the use of Suri or mohair held together with the main color, at alternating sections. Stay Cozy House Socks are worked from the cuff-down with a heel flap and gusset and are designed to be knit in two strands of fingering weight yarn, held together throughout. The addition of a single strand of Suri or Mohair further emphasizes the “stripe” design of the varying rib stitch patterns, while also providing extra warmth, durability and maximizing the cozy factor!
