Lilleke sock knitting pattern (English)

€4.50

These roosimine inlay socks with a fun floral pattern are a great beginner’s roosimine Estonian inlay knitting project. Also a great opportunity to use up mini skeins or leftovers!

Links to tutorials for techniques used are included in the pattern.

This sock is knit cuff down with a simple geomtric stripe and floral pattern using roosimine, an Estonian inlay knitting technique, in two colours worked on the front of the leg of the sock and instep of foot to the start of toe decreases. Only one contrast colour is used at a time for the roosimine. Roosimine is an excellent technique for using mini skeins or small yarn leftovers as this technique uses very little yarn (approx 11 yds / 10 m of each contrast colour). The contrast colours alternate every 3 rounds to create a plaid or tartan like effect within the chart pattern.

The heel flap uses a slip stitch pattern that creates a faux rib pattern.
