Yoga Socks with addi sock wonder
Yoga socks are not only practical & cosy – they are also quick and easy to knit. Thanks to their stretchiness and the absence of toe and heel, homemade yoga socks are ideal for beginners. In our free pattern, we show you how to knit stylish yoga socks in no time.

Knitting the yoga sock
Loosely cast on 60 stitches using your preferred method. I recommend using a stretchy cast-on.
Now join the cast-on stitches into a round and place a marker at the beginning of the round. Choosing 60 stitches is particularly advantageous, as it is divisible by 4 as well as by 3 and 6.
If you want to knit a larger or smaller yoga sock, make sure the number of stitches fits the pattern.
Tip: Use the sock calculator in the addi2go app to easily work out the right number of stitches for your yoga socks.

Shaft
Knit 12 rounds for the cuff in the pattern knit 3, purl 1. If you prefer a narrower or longer cuff, simply knit more or fewer rounds.
Rnd 1-3
Knit 3 stitches, purl 3 stitches.
Rnd 3-6
Purl 3 stitches, knit 3 stitches.
A pretty checkerboard pattern appears.
If you prefer you can also continue in the rib pattern, or just knit in stockinette stitch.
If you don't like this, you can also continue in rib pattern, stockinette stitch or garter stitch.
Repeat the 6 rounds until your yoga sock is about 10-12 cm long and finish after the 3rd or 6th round. Knit another 12 rounds of knit 3 / purl 1.

Heel opening
For the heel opening of your yoga socks, loosely bind off 30 stitches in the 13th round. Continue the round by knitting knit 3 / purl 1.
Now simply cast on 22 stitches elastically and again knit 12 rounds in the pattern knit 3 / purl 1. (To keep the pattern, simply add 2 stitches in the first round. You can easily add these in the middle with enough space between them.)
Then continue knitting in the #diedreivomblog block pattern or in the simple sock patternof your choice until the second part of the sock is about 5 cm long. Finish this section with a 3rd or 6th round of the pattern and then knit another 12 rounds in the pattern knit 3 / purl 1.
Finally, bind off elastically. Your hand-knitted yoga sock is finished.
Now continue with the second sock, which is knitted in exactly the same way.
