Here’s a quick and easy pattern for some very warm house-socks for your favorite guy (I say guy because they are sized for a man’s foot – US size 10 1/2 – 12). They only take a few hours to knit, so are perfect for a last minute gift! I used Encore worsted (doubled) to ensure that they could take some abuse (or at least washing). They’re worked from the toe up and are a quick way to try out Judy’s magic cast on (my favorite for toe-up socks) and a toe up heel flap.
