Usually, when knitting Socks, I keep things simple, because then I can, for example, listen to a podcast. In this case I had some single-coloured wool and knitting just along would have looked a bit too boring. Hence I wrote down my pattern (I am linking a short on how I do this). I am mostly too lazy to look around the net, since it really takes a lot of time only to end up using a very simple one or making my own. But yes, over time, I will also publish some more difficult ones. It’s just me loving simple stuff.

Knitting socks – part 1 – cuff and shaft
Knitting socks – part 2 – heel
Knitting socks – part 3 – gusset

If there is an instruction that is not clear, please let me know and I will improve the description. When you do knit all the time often there are obvious steps for the experienced knitter that are not obvious at all. The YouTube video is embedded below.
