Alkuja
“alkuja (fin) - beginnings (eng)”
The Alkuja sock pattern is the very first design I created and published back in 2018, and I'm excited to announce that it has been completely revamped a year later! This newly updated pattern is now available in a total of nine size options, making it more inclusive than ever. Choose from three sizes for children, three sizes for women, and three sizes for men. My goal is to ensure that everyone can find the perfect fit for their sock knitting projects!
In addition to expanding the size range, I've given the Alkuja pattern a fresh new look with an improved template that is user-friendly and easy to follow. These delightful socks are crafted using Aran weight yarn and 3.5 mm double-pointed needles (dpns), making them the ideal project for knitters looking to create cozy and stylish footware.
The construction of these socks begins at the cuff and seamlessly transitions to the toe. Featuring a fancy and textured rib pattern at the cuff, the leg showcases a simple yet elegant flag stitch pattern that is easy to knit. Additionally, the socks feature a reinforced Dutch heel for durability, and a beautiful instep design that allows the pattern to flow gracefully all the way to the tips of the toes, creating a stunning visual effect.
This pattern has been thoroughly tech edited and test knit to ensure clarity, accuracy, and consistency, making it a reliable choice for knitters of all skill levels. Don’t miss the chance to add the Alkuja sock pattern to your collection – perfect for making handmade gifts or treating yourself to a cozy new pair of socks!
