merope - pdf pattern
note: this purchase is for a pdf pattern. you will receive a download link upon purchase.
the lost sister, merope was fated to be the faintest of her sisters because she married a mere mortal. she was initially missed by early astronomers and star charts, either because she hid her face in shame or because she followed her husband to hades upon his death, depending on the myth you believe.
these socks are subtly beautiful with an easy-to-memorize chart featuring cables and lifted stitches. if you want your own socks to shine brighter, choose a light natural sock yarn that will show off your stitches more clearly. but if you value a more subdued beauty in your sock drawer, go with medium to dark tones and a more rustic wool like tuku wool’s raku colour here.
needles: US 1 (2.25mm) dpns OR circular needles appropriate for preferred method, or size needed to obtain gauge
yarn: 341 yards (312 metres), 80g of fingering weight yarn
sample shown in tuku wool’s fingering (100% finnish wool, 213 yards 195 metres, 50g) x 2 skeins in 09 raku
notions: 2 stitch markers, sock blockers (optional)
gauge: 36 stitches x 40 rounds = 4” (10cm), in stockinette, worked in the round, blocked
