DK Sweater Weather Socks by Carlie Perrins
Sweater Weather socks are a collection of three DK weight cuff down socks designed by Carlie Perrins of North Woods Knit Co.
Each design is squishy, cozy, and fun! The techniques are adventurous beginner level and each design has been created to be easily remembered for an intuitive, engaging and rewarding knitting experience.
Our Cuthbert’s Sock yarn is DK weight and will therefore be a gorgeous choice for these patterns, and one skein is enough for one pair of socks. An optional mini skein will allow you to knit contrasting heels, toes and cuffs.
Harvest Socks
Easy, peasy pattern repeat, twisted stitches, and an optional contrast cuff/heel/toe. These are vanilla plus level, perfect for TV knitting.
Favourite Sweater Socks
Super squishy, with lots of easy texture and a 4-round repeat. Only one round has a cable stitch, and it is easily executed without the aid of a cable needle. Intuitive and fun. Definitely one of those patterns that you’ll find yourself saying “just one more repeat”…until suddenly your sock is finished!
Autumn Leaves
Mock cable and eyelets create a cascade of autumn leaves. Again, this is one of those patterns that once you’ve knit the chart (or written instructions) one time through, you’ll be smooth sailing. And at a 10-round repeat, these beauties are done quick!
All three designs come with a heel flap and gusset heel construction, 5 sizes, and tons of tutorial videos incase you need a refresher on any technique used.

Made with our Cuthbert's sock
Whistlebare’s own sock yarn, 80% mohair and 20% Wensleydale from our own goats and sheep, tightly twisted for hard working feet.
Mohair is the perfect fibre for socks. It has the highest rub test of any natural fibre so you don’t need nylon. Nothing is better for keeping cold feet warm and hot feet cool than natural fibres. Mohair and Wensleydale are very lustrous and smooth, meaning bacteria can’t get hold and so there is no smell! All round the perfect blend for active feet.
