I made this for my nearest and dearest, who enjoys celebrating his Scottish heritage.

    About

    I've never made a pair of socks before! (It was fun learning how to turn a heel.) This pattern specifies substantial yarn (worsted / Aran) and tiny needles (3.25 mm). The result is a dense knit, perfect for these substantial 'knee socks.'

    Pattern

    Rose's Hose by Rose Singerman

    This pattern is from:
    Sock Hop produced by Kooler Design Studio, Inc.

    Yarns

    • material-yarn
      Järbo Garn - Raggi - Color 1500 ✕ 3.0 balls

    Needles & Hooks

    • Double Point 3.25mm (US 3) 20cm

    Accessories

    • Cable Needle
    • Stitch Markers
    • Tapestry Needle

    Measurements

    Notes: This pattern only includes one size for a pair of men's kilt hose. I modified it to make it longer and thinner, because the man I was making it for needed those modifications. He preferred a simple ribbed cuff, instead of the 'popcorn' stitch the pattern specified. I also doubled the number of cable twists at his request.
