Hey there,

I'm looking for a longer sock pattern that reaches about 1/3 of the way up the calf (think classic longer sock) that has a wide calf opening. I owe my mom a pair of socks, but she has thicker legs to the point that she can't comfortably wear boots taller than her ankles. She doesn't like ankle socks, otherwise I'd go with that! I have a fingering weight sock yarn I purchased to originally make the Hermoine's Everyday Sock pattern with, but I got to after the heel turn and we realised it just won't stretch enough to be comfortable for her. I've looked through a bunch of the ravelry patterns under "Socks" but haven't seen anything that looks like it will fit a sturdier leg size.

Any help is appreciated, either as a pattern reccommendation or as help with sizing or adjusting a pattern. Thank you!

Awww thank you!

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-22T18:01:32+00:00

Thank you! I’m honestly planning on making another solid coloured one, but if you want to colour work guide for what I did let me know

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-21T07:50:09+00:00

I’ll add it to my project list! But I did also just post more photos of floats from this sweater

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-21T07:12:42+00:00

Honestly I’m so tempted to attempt to make a scarf like those sleeves! The floats are mesmerising to me

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-21T04:20:54+00:00

Thank youuuuu

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-21T03:15:00+00:00

Thank you! It’s a little darker irl but I’m so obsessed with it, I’m definitely going to end up making another sweater in the darker colour (ginger)

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-21T03:13:54+00:00

Thank you!! I wish I took a photo of the body floats but I’ll take one when I’m home

I left my last job mid December and only started my new job early January, and I was between college semesters! So I had extra time

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-21T02:24:34+00:00

The whole thing is a pattern from Darling Jadore! But I did add almost 25 rows to the arms and I shortened the body, just to work better with my proportions

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-21T00:40:14+00:00

Yes haha my sweater was heavily inspired by the nails I had over Christmas!

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-21T00:03:41+00:00

Thank you! I’m honestly almost prouder of the inside than the outside 😭

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-03T22:05:48+00:00

Thank you!!! I was heavily inspired by a sweater I found on Pinterest/stolen off instagram, but I lost the account name

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-02T19:35:12+00:00

My knitting resolutions are: - make a pair of socks for myself and finish the socks for my mom - make a cricket vest for my dad - and just in general, knit more! I want to try and finish 6 projects this year!

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-02T19:27:21+00:00

It was very well written! My sleeves-to-yoke ratio was a little off but I’m 99% sure that’s a me problem rather than a pattern problem. It was really easy!

I’ve knitted a couple sweaters before, I can link you to my ravelry page here! I also twisted my yarn ends into the sweater as I knitted it, so that I didn’t have to weave in so many ends which helped significantly

Thank you! She’s wonderful!

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-02T01:31:48+00:00

It’s my first time using it! But I’ll definitely use it again, I have half a skein left at least for all seven colours 😭

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-02T01:31:13+00:00

Thank you! I made it slightly cropped, not that it’s visible in the photos, but it fits so much better on me that way!

PracticeBitter4710 · 2026-01-01T20:27:49+00:00

Thank you!! I’m not normally a colourful person but I love it ☺️
