Middle Section for Time of the Doctor Scarf

I recently knit Tess Campbell’s Time of the Doctor Scarf and added a middle section for it. This shows both the front and the back.

The link to the charts for this can be found here. This presumes a previous knowledge of double knitting techniques. There are a number of good resources available to learn from on the internet.

Variations on a Plain Ol’ Sock

Here’s a copy of my FREE pattern for my standard and adaptive knit socks.

Variations on a Plain Ol’ Sock

50g sock yarn per sock, size US1 needles (I prefer mgic loop, but two circulars or DPNs would work), optional US-F crochet hook, stitch markers, progress keeper (to make beginning of row)

(Shown with Option 1 and Option 3)

Option 1: Crew Sock

CO 64 (I use a crochet hook as with a provisional cast on but directly onto the needle. IMO it gives a nicer finish. Any stretchy CO will work).

Cuff:

Work 2×2 rib for 15 rows.

Leg:

Knit even for 56 rows (a pattern of lace or cable would be lovely on this. Also, if you are striping two or more yarns, using self-striping or a heavily variegated yarn, let the yarn speak for itself!).

Heel Flap:

Rep the following 2 rows for a total of 32 rows:

Row 1: (Sl st, K) across

Row 2: Sl st, purl across

Heel Turn:

R1: Knit 18, ssk, K1, TURN

R2: Sl St, P5, p2tog, P1

R3: Sl st, K6, ssk, K1

R4: Sl St, P7, p2tog, P1

R5: Sl st, K8, ssk, K1

Continue as established until all stitches on the heel are worked and you have 18-20 heel stitches left.

Gusset:

Set up: Pick up and knit (17 if you had 18 sts left at the end of the turning, 16 if you had 20), work even across inseam, pick up and knit same number of stitches as first side. Place markers as needed to keep track of additional stitches.

Rep the following 2 rows a total of 22 times:

Row 1: K to last 3 sts before inseam. K2tog, k1, work inseam sts in pattern, k1, ssk, k to EOR.

Row 2: K around.

Foot:

Work Inseam stitches in pattern, K sole stitches (32 inseam stitches, 32 sole stitches) to approx 1.5” from desired end of sock. Mine works out to 37 rows.

Toe:

Rep the following 2 rows until you have 8 stitches on both the top and sole needles:

Row 1: *K1, ssk, knit to three sts before end of needle, k2tog, k1. Rep from * once more.

Row 2: K around.

Use Kitchener stitch to graft the final eight stitches on each needle together.

Option 2: Shortie Sock

CO 64 (I use a crochet hook as with a provisional cast on but directly onto the needle. IMO it gives a nicer finish. Any stretchy CO will work).

Cuff:

Work 2×2 rib for 15 rows.

Knit even for 2 rows.

Heel Flap:

Continue as established until all stitches on the heel are worked and you have 18-20 heel stitches left.
