marigold sock pattern
Hi all! Still settling back in Michigan, so not much knitting to report.
But the Marigold pattern is done and ready for downloading. Get it now!
BIG, BIG THANK YOUs to Jody for the fancy professional-looking lace chart, and to Minty for some serious editing assistance. You guys are awesome. Awesome, I say.
So enjoy my first Flint Knits original socks! Please let me know if you find errors, or parts that aren’t quite clear, or if you have any questions. And, of course, please let me know if you actually knit them!

Congrats on your first pattern! How totally awesome! And I think my choice of sock pattern for my Sockapalooza pal might just have changed to Marigolds! Seriously, I can’t wait to knit these socks. And I can’t wait for more Flint Knits originals!

Congratulations and thank you for sharing the pattern. You must be so proud: your baby is out there in the world now.
Hmmm, I wonder if my new Koigu would work…
Pamela Wynne, handknit sock designer. Nice!

Hooray - thanks for the beautiful pattern!
Do you mind if I mosy up to the geek bar and ask a question? I’ve wondered about what html to use to get a picture of a pattern above the link (in text) in my sidebar. I’ve tried a few things, but have never been able to figure it out! Thoughts?
May 31st, 2007 at 4:07 pm
Thank you so much for shaing this fantastic sock pattern! Must learn toe-up techniques… Congrats!
May 31st, 2007 at 5:39 pm
I just downloaded the pattern. Thanks for sharing it! I can’t wait to make some. Hmmm… my sockapalooza pal wants toe up socks and I have been searching for a stretchy but not too lacy pattern that will fit her. Hmmm…

[…] Marigold sock number one is complete, but destined for the frog pond. I stupidly cast on with 2mm needles, thinking they were 2.25mm and the sock is too tight around the ankle (I wear a UK size 5 and a half). The pattern is an enjoyable one so I may well return to it, possibly with a less bright yarn. The pattern is quite busy (although perfectly simple to knit) and when combined with lairy yellow yarn, the overall effect is…extravagant!Sunshine and showers were scheduled today but I saw rather more of the latter when, having reached a bit of a brick wall with my college project, I took DB’s advice and ventured out into the rain seeking inspiration. My first stop was the latest exhibition at Somerset House - Skin & Bones: Parallel Practices in Fashion and Architecture. The perfectly assembled mix of models, maquettes, garments, computer images, drawings and prints provided real food for thought. I heartily recommend it. […]

I’m loving these Marigold socks in purple yarn. The foot worked well but now on the leg, the pattern is rotating around the leg. Mother’s Day is next week and my mother isn’t a knitter so won’t notice. Thanks for the pattern. I’ll try and get it right next time.

Your pattern was just knit by someone in our Sock Club. Looks interesting and fun to knit so I’ll be using it too with a pink/green self-striping yarn. The contrasting color should give another dimension to the socks.
