Pukeawe



Pukeawe was knit during the weeks before I flew off to Hawaii to get married. The Pukeawe berries that grow in Volcano were a part of my bouquet, and the shell pattern that lines the sides of the sock remind me of the shells that formed the aisle. I wanted to have something to warm both the feet and the heart in winter, when beaches and flowers seem so far away.




SIZE
One Size


FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Circumfrence of ball of foot=9 inches


MATERIALS


Knitpicks Bare fingering weight[merino/silk; 440 yds per 100g skein]; hand-dyed Cochineal; 1 skein
1 30-inch US #2/2.5mm circular needle

Tapestry needle

GAUGE

38 sts/48 rows = 4" in stockinette stitch



PATTERN NOTES


The pattern was designed for magic loop, but is easily transferable to whatever method you prefer.

The sock is quite roomy, for toe-wiggling purposes, and should fit all sizes; if not, simply add in a couple of extra stitches before beginning the shell pattern at the side of the foot.

MB (Make Bobble): k1,p1,k1,p1 into next st, turn, k4, turn, sl st purlwise, p3tog, psso.





PATTERN


Toe

Turkish cast on sixteen stitches (8 for top of foot, 8 for bottom of foot).
*K1, M1R, k to last st on needle, m1L, K1. Repeat from * around
K all stitches
Repeat these two rows until 68 stitches are on needles.



Foot
Work lace pattern below across stitches for top of foot, work sts for bottom of foot in stockinette.

Rounds 1-4 are set up rounds and are worked one time only. Lace pattern will repeat from R5.

R1: K13, yo, skp, k2, MB, k16.

R2 and all even: K all sts.

R3: K1, yo, p1, p3tog, p1, yo, k8, yo, skp, k2, MB, k9, yo, p1, p3tog, yo, k1.

Gusset
R1: Work in pattern across top of foot, k1, yo, k to last st of bottom of foot, yo, k1.
R2: Work in pattern across top of foot, k all sts for bottom of foot.

Repeat these 2 rounds 9X more (34 sts for top of foot, 54 sts for bottom of foot).

R3: K to last st before wrapped st, w&t.
R4: P to last st before wraped st, w&t.

Repeat rows 3 & 4 10X more—all stitches have been worked.



Leg

Back of leg now has 30 sts, front of leg has 34. Therefore, the lace pattern for the back of leg will be slightly different. Resume working in the round, working the lace pattern for front of leg as above, and for back of leg as follows:

R19: K13, yo, skp, k2, MB, k10.

R20: K all sts.

Continue as you have been until sock reaches 1.5 inches less than desired length, ending with an even-numbered round.



Cuff
R1: Work first 6 sts in shell pattern as you have been, k2tog, (p1, k1) to last 6 sts of front of leg, work 6 sts in shell pattern. P1, k2tog, (p1, k1) to last st of back of leg, end p1.

Repeat R2 until cuff measures 1.5 inches, or desired length.

Shell Pattern (worked over 6 sts):

R1-3: K all sts
R4: K1, yo, p1, p3tog, p1, yo.

Once you've learned the basics, many people find crocheting easier than knitting because you don't have to move the stitches back and forth between needles.

Harrisonburg Tree Service Company said...

Knitting boils down to three essential skills. These are the cast on, knit stitch, and the cast off. These three techniques make up the backbone of knitting.

Spokane Heating and Cooling said...

Knitting creates stitches: loops of yarn in a row, either flat or in the round (tubular).

What a lovely and heartfelt story behind the creation of these Pukeawe socks! The intricate lace pattern and Pukeawe berries in the bouquet make these socks unique and special. I can only imagine the warmth and joy they bring to the wearer, both physically and emotionally.

24/7 electrical service said...

Your pattern is so well written, but I have a question about the heel part. In the gusset section, after increasing, do I need to adjust the lace pattern on the top of the foot? Also, if I wanted to make the socks a bit more snug, could I just decrease the number of stitches before starting the shell pattern?

I found it to be a fascinating exploration of unconventional knitting techniques and the artistic possibilities they offer. The author's description of creating a "puke-like" texture through creative stitch combinations and color choices was both intriguing and thought-provoking. It's a testament to the boundless creativity and versatility of knitting as a craft, pushing the boundaries of traditional patterns and inspiring new avenues of expression.

The intertwining of Pukeawe berries in your wedding bouquet and the shell-patterned socks beautifully encapsulate the essence of your special day in Hawaii. The thought of these socks embracing both your feet and your heart during winter brings a joyful warmth, bridging the gap between distant beaches and blossoming flowers. Truly, a tangible reminder of love's enduring embrace.
