I have made many pairs of these lovely socks for myself, friends and family. Wonderful clear and simple instructions even for a beginner. Thank you ! X
This is the easiest loom knit sock pattern every. Thank you so much for posting this video. At first it was hard for me to listen because you sound just like a very dear friend, who was from England, who passed away two years ago but once I got through the first round of tears I went right back to it and finished the sock because I knew that is what she would have wanted me to do.

Wonderful video! followed the technique then experimented with lengths & wool styles for a range of results. ive only been knitting for 2 months & love making socks this way! thank u so much, i also love hearing your lilting accent!x
Fabulous video. Just made a pair for my mum who has swollen feet and can't wear wool or nylon. Got a ball of cotton yarn. My first project on a loom. Thank you Lily
Hi Lily, I hope you're OK xx ❣ Wow, you've just rejuvenated my inkling to start making socks again with your Brilliant tutorial. Happy Loom Knitting Take care and stay safe Love Jen xx in Lancashire xx
Thank you so much you showed me in such detail and explained everything so simply I can do this now without getting all mixed up. Thank you so much your the best. I have been watching videos most of the day and none did it as easily as you.. you definitely have a new subscriber
I have mad a pair these with a number 4 yarn & a number 5 yarn, both machine washable & dry able. The recipient just loves them and now her daughter and husband want a pair.
Just a handy tip take a plastic straw cut it in half thread your wool through the straw and you can weave your stitches easier and faster through the pegs thankyou for the video
Juanita , I made the foot portion 25 rows which fits my size 10 and my sister's size 11 shoe.That would equal a man's 8-9 shoe.So about 1 row per size.I have gone sock crazy with this easy pattern.My thanks to Lily!
Pat loomer use to do this. Thanks for bringing it back. I am making the other video sock you have but i wonder how are they going to stay up if i want the knee high and 40 rows is only 1/2 way up so i go further with rows
Thank You for this... Simple, straight-forward, engaging, and fun. I found myself smiling and giggling right along. Looking forward to my first pair. Thank You Again :)
Yeah it was ok for a first attempt at loom knitting thanks! They're a bit baggy but they definitely look like socks lol. Thanks for explaining it so well - some videos are too complicated to follow
I'd go for the next size down (36 I think) so you have an even number of pegs. Work half the number of pags for the heel, and take it down to a third of the peg left on single wrap. So on 36 pegs, you'd use 18 to make a heel, you'd reduce down until you had 9 double wrapped each side, and 9 single ones in middle before working them back out. X
I hope you and yours are well, Lily. Thank you for sharing your loom knowledge and skill. A very useful and helpful video. I know you said you are using 2 strands of DK yarn; however, I did not hear how much is used for each sock. Do you recall how many yards or meters you used here?
If you are doing the U wrap method (as I do) due to the tighter knit, I would recommend adding additional rows for foot size. not sure how much. I attempted a size 10 sock with 25 rows, but the sock fits my size 7 foot very snug. I think for the next pair I make I will do 35 or 40 rows and see how big that is. Good thing my mom has small feet like mine and I can give this first pair to her! I really like this method and its super easy to follow!!! Great video!
@@devwoman180 When I did a regular sock with 50 rows wasn't a knee John. I am doing a knee high now and 80-100 does it for adults. 50 maybe for a toddler.
I've watched a few sock loom videos and yours seems super easy. I have saved it and will follow it once I have my loom. Do you gave to double the yarn I wonder, and is there specific wool/yarn to use. When I researched many refer to actual sock yarn. Guess I can experiment a bit.
Great video. I noticed a comment was made to increase the rows from 25 to 50 for knee high. Could this be used for over the knee leg warmers my increasing more rows than 50 and adding a stretchy ribbed band at the top?
omg this was awesome however my dilemma is that I have a small flower loom and I started doing booties for a baby but when it came down to doing the heel....I did not get it at all....it was crazy wrapping, really can't explain it. Can I adapt this to a 12 loom and do the heel as you have done it? If yes how many pegs do I need to work on....you worked on 12 so do I just do what you did on six pegs...I would appreciate any help you can offer. I was learning to do this because I wanted to give my granddaughter who is 8 one of these hoping she may get interested and try making these. I don't want to give her something that is going to frustrate the hell out of her and possibly never wanting to do this again. She lives on the other side of country from me so I am not able to teach her once I have learned. The good news is I can always get her father to watch this video and help her out. I have subscribed can't wait to see what else you have. thank you for sharing you really are a good teacher.
Emanuela Davis Hello, yes just work the heel with six pegs, it will work really quick because you'll only be taking number of pegs worked down from 6 to 2, and then back up again. I've too a little break from videos but will have some new look knitting ones up in the next month. Your grandaughter may like the Bunny video I have on here as it's a quick project that kids usually enjoy. X
is there a written pattern PLEASE? i have trouble following on a video for that length of time and i need a written pattern for this type of sock. i have been searching for a very long time and i keep running into problems trying to find one. i dont know where to look!!
Brilliant thank you am on my second pair I just wish I could remember the pattern for the heel but they way video is done it’s so easy loving my socks going to make all my family some for xmas x
Excellent tutorial ! I am well on my way at my first attempt .One question .I am a little confused as to your shoe sizing.I wear a 41 European shoe such as Birkenstocks which is a size 10 women's or an 8 men's in America . How many rows do you suggest?
I'm just beginning my 1st pair of socks using extra thick yarn.I was watching a different channel and yours & wonder why you girls don't tighten the stitches up as you go & make sure the bulge part is on the inside of the loom? Yes, I know it sounds kind of silly I just have to idea why you don't tighten u. Juanita (Newbie at socks)
Juanita, they will even themselves out as you go. You can mess with them as you go, but if you want to get done with your project more quickly, you will let them fix themselves. You notice that her tension does not suffer for ignoring the loose loops, but if it bothers you - as with OCD - go ahead and tighten them. if you don't enjoy the process you won't keep doing projects. :)
Thank you so much i finaly made those wonderful socks. Excellent video by the way. If u can add something, maybe just say that after 2 rounds we can snug in the not under our work. Thank you again c.g.
Hello I really hope u get to respond to this I'm doing my sock on a 52 peg loom I know I used half for the heal which would be 26 but how do I do the rest. How many pegs are in the middle? How many pegs are on the sides?
Lily my friend once again you have helped me make a pair of socks that I can enjoy. I did do one thing different when I got to about 13 rows left to go I made a nice brim for my socks and then continued on from there and they turned out great. R u gonna do a video for a cat jumper? I wanna make one for my 20lb cat
i have Been doing your socks for a while but now I want to do a big version as a Christmas stocking, and I have a QUESTION! When I do the heel should I leave more double pegs on each side instead of three? (The bigger the sock the more the pegs?) thank you!
It depends on size of loom... I'd go so that you end up with the heel section being roughly equal numbers of if doubled wrapped/single wrapped/double wrapped
I already knitted 2 pair of socks and I really liked your video! Thanks so much for sharing!! BUT both pairs are constantly sliding down (they turned out kind of big) my calfs/feet. I even made one pair very high- but no difference. What did I do wrong? Any solutions regarding the finished pairs? i used 2 number 4 yarns at once.
They are naturally pretty "slouchy", if you watch the "Pussy Cat Hat" or "Loom Knitted Head Scarf" vids I have done since this one, they include how to do a "rib stitch" if you do the first 5-10 rows in this stitch, it elasticates the top and they stay up.

Soul's Ease how thick was the yarn you used?
+Laura Jinn Hey there Laura. I used two or three separate strands of worsted or #4 weight such as regular Red Heart brand.
@@soulsease2230 do you have to use two stands or bulky to make socks on a loom like she is using.
I used two strands of #4 or worsted yarn like standard red heart brand. A single strand would "work" but there would be more open space like a mesh.
Fantastic very easy and very quick socks amazing thanks for sharing
Pat loomer use to do this. Thanks for bringing it back. I am making the other video sock you have but i wonder how are they going to stay up if i want the knee high and 40 rows is only 1/2 way up so i go further with rows

Very easy to follow. I think I could make these now so thank you. All your daft noises etc made me smile too so double fun! x
Thank You for this... Simple, straight-forward, engaging, and fun. I found myself smiling and giggling right along. Looking forward to my first pair. Thank You Again :)
Love your sock thanks you for sharing I'm just wondering how many rows do I need for a size 3 in UK xx
Nice easy to follow instructions. I'm going to give these socks a go tomorrow!
How'd you get on? x

This was so helpful!!! Thank you !! I made my first sock!!! Many many more to come :)
Hello, I am looking to make an easy knee high version with stripes - just two colors. Can you let me know how to modify to do so? Thank you !
Grace Cashman she said instead of 25, make 50 rows for knee highs.

When I did a regular sock with 50 rows wasn't a knee John. I am doing a knee high now and 80-100 does it for adults. 50 maybe for a toddler.

Whoa! Kindred spirit! It's very eerie. Subscribed. I wish to learn socks from my doppelganger. :D
You do the heal so easy. When you put om the sock is there no holes in the feet and how do you keep them drom falling down. Thank you for this video

How much yarn do you need to make a pair of socks? I don't want to run out halfway through. ;)
I finished my first sock thanks to you!!
Thank You for the tutorial. It was very helpful!!!
Hello I really hope u get to respond to this I'm doing my sock on a 52 peg loom I know I used half for the heal which would be 26 but how do I do the rest. How many pegs are in the middle? How many pegs are on the sides?
what a great tutorial!
My niece is 9/12 children size UK how many rows is please thank you xx
I bought sock yarn which seems very fine. I’m worried it will be more like a net rather than a sock
Love the video I'm keep getting holes at the heels xx
Is there a way to avoid getting large gaps in the area of the heel? And is there a way to fix those large gaps?
Nice tut, finished a sock but it has 2 holes on both sides on the heel. I followed the instructions to perfection..
DenVaagheid the same happened to me, i do not understand what happened there.... i also followed the instructions to perfection
Is there a size chart that tells me how many rows high for each size?
Very good instructions.
Lily my friend once again you have helped me make a pair of socks that I can enjoy.

Beautiful! . thank you so much :) .. super easy to follow
If you work the first one before you wrap your yarn it holds it in place and you don’t have to worry about it coming lose
i have Been doing your socks for a while but now I want to do a big version as a Christmas stocking, and I have a QUESTION! When I do the heel should I leave more double pegs on each side instead of three? (The bigger the sock the more the pegs?) thank you!
Yes you'll need to use enough roughly half the pegs on the loom to make up the heel section x
@@LilyOak half of the loom, got it and then back an forth until o have how many double stitches in each side? (In your video is three and three)
It depends on size of loom... I'd go so that you end up with the heel section being roughly equal numbers of if doubled wrapped/single wrapped/double wrapped
this was a very good tutorial, thank you
Thanks for the tutorial you were very easy to follow! :-)
Is there a way I can show you my sock I finally got it all done 🤗xx
You can tag me on Instagram, @LilyOak x
I've just downloaded Instagram xx
How many e wrap do you need again im making a size four for mine friend xx
Getting the hang off the heel now had to Stewart a few times 🤣🤣
u r the best ever thank u for aploading this wonderfull vid
Gute schöne Idee diese Handarbeit aber mir fehlt so ein haken um diese Arbeit zu
Verwenden.
quick question - how many skeins did you use total, for both socks ?
I already knitted 2 pair of socks and I really liked your video! Thanks so much for sharing!! BUT both pairs are constantly sliding down (they turned out kind of big) my calfs/feet. I even made one pair very high- but no difference. What did I do wrong? Any solutions regarding the finished pairs? i used 2 number 4 yarns at once.
They are naturally pretty "slouchy", if you watch the "Pussy Cat Hat" or "Loom Knitted Head Scarf" vids I have done since this one, they include how to do a "rib stitch" if you do the first 5-10 rows in this stitch, it elasticates the top and they stay up.
Do a cast on, then knit 12 rounds of K2. P2. (Rib) This way the sock will stay up.
Brenda W thankyou
if you want to when you finish you could hand stitch a rim of elastic around the top or sinch it a little bit so that it stays up.
Can you turn captions on?? Big thanks
This so works for me. I have rounded toes instead of pointed.
I love it all tho i do found the heel a bit hard but i get there xx
Love this video! Thank you!
Love the looms but i still found the heel a bit hard 🤷♀️x
What will happen or how will it look if I only use 1 strand!
What is the number for dk yarn and could I use worsted weight have been searching for an easy pattern that uses a round loom
Worsted weight should be absolutely fine for this project x
So cool !
Thank you so much for this video.
very easy to follow thank you
What sizes would you do for uk size 9 xx
