Socks Patterns
Keep your feet warm with this collection of free crochet socks patterns. All of the socks in this list are worked in fine-weight yarn and are suitable for wearing with shoes. Crochet socks can be just as great as knitted socks; they’re quicker to make too. Don’t crochet too tight; socks need some stretch to be comfortable to wear. But don’t crochet too loose either; they need to fit well. And use fine fingering weight or sock yarn, as smaller stitches are more comfortable underfoot. Of course, you can use thicker yarns to make fantastic slipper socks to wear around the house.
