All About the Pattern
If you like to go on outdoorsy adventures like me, then you know how frustrating it is when your thick socks twist about in your boots when you’re busy living life. That’s where the inspiration for Cozy Hiker socks was born! I wanted a thick and warm sock in a pattern that was not only easy and quick to knit up, but had a lot of bounce back and hugged you snuggly — helping to reduce any slippage and frustration while keeping you focused on the path ahead of you. Paired with a contrasting color for your cuff, heel, and toe, these are just the CUTEST high calf socks to show off over your favorite jeans or leggings. I hope you enjoy making and wearing them as much as I have had designing this pattern for you!

Needles & Notions:
DK Version: US 3 Needles
Worsted Version: US 4 Needles
Sock Ruler or Measuring tape
Optional: Progress Keeper and Stitch Markers if using small circumference circular needles.
Sizing and Gauge:
Top Down socks are great because you end them when you reach the size you want!
If using worsted weight yarn, use US 4 needles, if DK yarn use US 3. Cast on a multiple of 4 stitches, my recommended number of stitches for cast on for each option is in the pattern!
If you are a known to be a very loose knitter, consider casting on 4 less stitches than recommended.
