About this pattern
Spooky season deserves spooky socks, and these are my favorite kind of creepy. Little puff stitch spiders crawl across a colorwork panel, and they're just as fun to make as they are to wear.
They're worked toe up in the split single crochet stitch, also called the waistcoat stitch, with a cozy ribbed cuff and an afterthought heel. You make them to your own measurements for a custom fit. They use fingering weight yarn, the pattern is written in US and UK terms, and a video tutorial is included.
