{"product_id":"hint-of-peace-socks","title":"Hint of Peace Socks – Knitting pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith simple knit and purl stitches, a peace sign is slowly taking shape – the international symbol for an immeasurably valuable condition which to promote, restore and keep is one of the most crucial tasks of humankind. \u003cstrong\u003eIn this spirit, I chose to make this a free pattern!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese socks are ideal for everyone who enjoys a simple but engaging knit or would like to let pictures appear on their socks but is not comfortable knitting colourwork (yet). Since the symbol is created only through the texture of alternating knits and purls, it does not stand out as strongly as colourwork would. Rather, it appears in a more subtle form – which is the reason for the name of this design: \u003cstrong\u003eHint of Peace Socks\u003c\/strong\u003e. A variation of the classic ribbed cuff, delicate stripes and a slip stitch heel add interest to this relaxing knit. This pattern is a homage to the soothing power of knitting which, with its gentle repetitive movements and slow progress, can help us find inner peace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 sizes, corresponding to shoe size EU (37–39; 40–41; 42–44)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended yarn:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFingering weight sock yarn in one main colour and one contrast colour, e.g. Woollentwine Ovis Sock or Pascuali Pinta\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYarn estimates:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eMain colour:\u003c\/span\u003e approx.
