This pattern is the April sock in my Westknits Year of Socks e-book. This pattern is available exclusively as part of the Westknits Year of Socks 2025 e-book. You will receive a new sock pattern update at the beginning of each month until all 12 socks are released by December 2025. The sock patterns will be available to purchase individually in 2026.
Gather a colorful pile of fingering weight sock yarn to knit these scrappy stashbusting socks! The pattern begins with the leg knit sideways in garter stitch short rows. The leg is knit flat and then seamed together, producing several angular short row wedges. Little eyelet stripes provide perfect color popportunities for using small bits of leftover sock yarn. Stitches are then picked up for the cuff and heel flap. The top of the foot is knit flat with more short rows and eyelet stripes. The bottom of the foot is worked in stockinette stitch while being knitted together with the top foot fabric. A final toe is worked in the round to finish these fun sock yarn stashbusters.
You can purchase the e-book on Ravelry.

Beth and I fell down the unpacking rabbit hole last night. We’ve unpacked a lot of boxes but there are a few stragglers. The last boxes are things we don’t really need so we’ve been putting off opening them. We are also trying to get more pictures on the walls. Then there was about an hour of golf. I was also able to knit a few rows before bed. 10 repeats are finished and I have 5 to go until I separate. Lynn passed me and has separated hers 😂
Is it April or January? We had crazy snow here this morning that changed to freezing rain and then rain. This came up in my memories today. It was the day that dad and Beth picked up Fred.Someone wouldn’t come in and was soaked.The knitting corner in my sewing room.
There are still a lot of boxes to be unpacked. Lynn - where are you???
I checked on Beth after winding a skein of yarn. I made it a bit further on my cardigan and I might get another row finished before bed. Tomorrow is a long day. Dad has a doctor’s appointment at 8:30 downtown. Then work and we have a function after work. I’ll tell you more about that tomorrow.
