With the arrival of cold weather, everyone is trying to warm themselves up; they need woolen sweaters, hats, scarves... But how can you do without warm socks? Let's look at what patterns you can choose for adults and children. Taking into account the holidays, the motifs of the patterns may be different: for New Year, Christmas, etc.
Suitable yarn and knitting needles for winter socks
Choosing yarn for making socks is not so easy. It is only at first glance that it seems that you can choose more wool in composition and any beautiful colors. But pure wool is not as durable. Socks from it will fail faster than the master knits a second pair. Another option is to make it from cotton threads. Only cotton ones will not be as warm.
Quite often, craftsmen, in order to combine strength and warmth in some models, simply knitted from different types of yarn in two or even three threads. Success is gaining and special, combined yarn for socks.
There is a whole line of similar fiber. There will be plenty to make beautiful and fashionable winter socks from.
Knitting needles for making socks, no matter whether they are winter or summer, are stocking needles. There is a slight exception when the patterns are made on two knitting needles. It is very important to knit strictly according to the thickness of the thread so that the loops fit more tightly and this way things will always be stronger and more attractive.

Popular pattern colors
Very popular recently knitted socks with pigtails were considered. The masters became so trained that they were ready to apply braids not only to the lower leg, but to the entire fabric of the item and even the heel. Everyone liked the models. Even those with sizes 40 and above were able to find cute models for themselves.
Gradually, the braids began to fade into the background and this year there was a big breakthrough for jacquard. Because it was socks with unusual patterns that became leaders.
