Furoshiki Bedsocks
Intro: Furoshiki Bedsocks
STEP 1: Equipment:
STEP 2: Instructions:
You start with 6 stitches + selvedge. Then you add 60 rows of right-plaited stitches.
STEP 3: Increasing
Now you increase the number of stitches per row by one on each side 13 times. At the end you should have 32 stitches in that row (13 + 6 + 13).
STEP 4: Ribbing
Double the stitches to 64 and create a 2x2 ribbing. Continue for 15cm to 20cm. I have European shoe size 41 and knitted 16cm.
STEP 5: Decreasing
STEP 6: Buttonhole
STEP 7: Button
Sew the button into a customized position for your perfect fitting on the ribbon without the buttonhole.
STEP 8: Crocheting
Now you fold your work in progress in the middle and close the sides of the middle part with a crochet hook and another working yarn. Weave in all the ends.
STEP 9: Fitting
Finished! Well, one of them. The secound one is done the same way, there is no difference between left and right bedsock. If you want to learn knitting, try out the class right here at instructables:

But these are bedsocks. Used in your bed. You don't want to carry the dirt from the floor into your bed. They are thin enough to get into your slippers when you stand up and warm enough when you want to sleep with an open window for fresh air during winter. Or when your girl keeps stealing the blankets ..
