Easy Peasy Yoga - Pilates Socks


These are a quick easy knit. Designed to keep the heels and toes open for gripping the mat, these socks are totally functional and fun. It's basically a K2P1 rib with some garter stitching at the opening points. Easy. Feel free to contact me or leave a comment if you have any questions. This pattern can also be found on Ravelry.
Easy Peasy Yoga - Pilates Socks

Approximately 80 to 100 yrds of fingering weight sock yarn. The samples are made of Claudia's Hand Painted Yarn in Ingrid's Blues colorway purchased from The Loopy Ewe. Any thicker type sock yarn should work fine.

US size 3 (3.25 mm) dpns or circular needles

Cast on 42 stitches.

Join in round, taking care not to twist stitches.

R1 - Knit all stitches

R2 - Purl all stitches

R3 - Knit all stitches

R4 -Purl all stitches

R5 - Knit all stitches

R6 - Begin K2 P1 rib

R7 through R41 - Continue K2 P1 rib (this was approximately 3.5 inches for me. You may want more or less rows depending on your desired sock size.)

R42 - K2P1 for 21 stitches (this is the top of your sock), K 21 (this is the bottom of your sock)

R43 - K2P1 for 21 stitches (top), P 21 (bottom)

R44 - K2P1 for 21 stitches (top), Cast Off 21 (bottom - I add an extra knitted stitch every 5th stitch for a bit of extra give)

R45 - R46 will be worked back and forth

R45 - Slip 1st stitch. K1P1, K2P1 to end. Turn work.

R46 - Slip 1st stitch. P1K1, P2K1 to end. Turn work.

R47 - Slip 1st stitch. K1P1, K2P1 to end. Cast on 21 stitches. Join in round, taking care not to twist stitches.

R48 - K2P1 for 21 stitches (top of sock); K21 stitches (bottom of sock)

R49 - K2P1 for 21 stitches (top of sock); P21 stitches (bottom of sock)

R50 - K2P1 for 21 stitches (top of sock); K21 stitches (bottom of sock)

R51 - K2P1 all stitches.

R52- R86 - Continue in K2P1 pattern. This is the point to add more rows of the K2P1 pattern if you wish a longer top to your sock.

R87 - K all stitches

R88 - P all stitches

R89 - K all stitches

R90 - Bind off loosely. For a bit more give, I place an extra knit stitch every 6th bind off stitch.

Complete the 2nd sock, and you're ready to try your Downward Facing Dog or Warrior Poses.


Enjoy!

  19. hello all...dominical costa rica toursI'm at work and procrastinating badly...Its been a long week, with lots of tantrums, tears and not enough sleep (feel for you herby) and I need my weekend to start NOW! Need to stay at work until I get phone call from DH letting me know he is nearly at garage then I can leave to go and collect him but no point going home before then as would take 2-3 times longer to get to garage if I have to drive through city. Mank mank, moan, moan.

  44. I am a sock addict and for my yoga I can't think without my socks. I am also allergic to woolen items, so I need to use high quality cotton socks. I search online a lot and shops as well, but didn't get something which one I'd love to wear. Later, I got online one day, this is the best yoga socks for me. So comfortable and high quality made.
