These Cozy Cottage Socks are made by a simple design. And the pattern is available in multiple sizes.
I love socks! Especially cozy ones! So I thought it only fitting (and practical) to design myself a pair for our cold cottage floors.
I have always loved socks. I loved getting them for Christmas when I was younger, I still love to get them now. So after I picking up this %100 Canadian Wool by Fleece and Harmony and playing with it for a bit, I knew exactly what I wanted to make!
Wool Socks!
The Knit Look:
If you’ve been following me for a little bit you’ll know that I absolutely love the knit look, but I’m terrible at knitting. I was so happy when I discovered the knit stitch (Sometimes called the waistcoat stitch). I could have that knit look I desired in my crochet! (Feel free to browse my blog for more great patterns featuring this stitch such as my Canada Toque or Classic Christmas Stocking).
The Yarn by Fleece and Harmony:
These socks are crocheted in a beautiful %100 Canadian made wool by Fleece and Harmony. They are out of Prince Edward Island in Canada and I had the pleasure of visiting them last summer while on holidays with my family. You can check out some of their gorgeous yarns HERE and best of all, they ship!
The wool I used is worsted (10 WPI) weigh yarn so these socks are quite cozy, great as reading socks and for lounging around the house or cottage. Once you get the hang of the knit stitch, I am sure that you will love them.
The Design:
I’ve designed them with a shorter cuff, I you would like to make them longer, you may do so, just remember to take into account the extra yarn you will need.
The pattern includes three women’s sizes: shoe size 5/6, 7/8, 9/10.
Following the written pattern you will find a handy video tutorial where I will make the smallest size for you.
Pattern PDFs are available!

These are adorable! I’ve never made socks before but my feet are screaming for these!
I love wearing mine 🙂
Thank you for this amazing pattern and video tutorial. I have pinned it and plan on making a bunch for Christmas gifts.
I love it when I find Canadian designers!!!! You have a new follower!
Thank you so much 🙂
This is so beautifully explained, in a sweet voice.
After knee surgery, I was looking for a pattern for knee [not leg!] warmers. I modified your pattern by omitting the toe, making a few rounds of ribbing, and making the heel turn as large as I needed to accomodate my knee. I want to thank you for demonstrating how to do short rows in crochet. Love your website — I keep it bookmarked.
Sara I am trying to crochet the grey sock for 0 to 6 months, I can not see the written pattern for those, would you please put it under the sock video. Thank you I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, VERY WELL EXPLAINED.
