That is so sad!

You deserve happiness and fine things. Cast on a new project, the most squishy yarn, fun notions and instruction books, some new skills and fiber friends with a class...

Plus, this habit is much better for your teeth than crack.

BASE DOODLE SOCKS (TOP-DOWN, FINGERING WEIGHT)

aka: The Little Sock Pattern That Thinks It’s a Blank Canvas

Meet your new go-to sock recipe — the one you’ll reach for again and again because it lets you be as extra (or as chill) as you want. Want full-blown, head-to-toe colorwork? Do it. Want a little pop of pattern on just the leg? Absolutely. Want to keep things classy with a tiny cuff design but still feel smug about your handmade socks? We support this energy.

Switch up your ribbing, tweak your heel, remix your toe — options for days. Truly endless. These socks are basically the brunch buffet of knitting patterns.

Doodles by Pacific Knit Co. are the modern, modular “design-your-own-adventure” patterns that let you knit exactlywhat your over-caffeinated creative brain envisions — all within a beautifully simple framework. Every motif works with every shape, which means you get chaos-level creativity without chaos-level math. Bless.

The Base Doodle Patterns are your entry ticket into the full Doodle universe. Choose your base. Choose any charts from ANY collection. Grab your favorite yarns. Then go forth and doodle your masterpiece.

How These Socks Work (without making your eye twitch):

  • Knit in the round, top-down — because we respect tradition but also love convenience.

  • Start with your cuff. Make it spicy or keep it simple. You do you.

  • Dive into your design-your-own stranded colorwork on the leg (this is where things get delightfully unhinged).

  • Insert your afterthought heel like the boss you are.

  • Keep doodling that colorwork down the foot.

  • Shape and graft the toe like the accomplished knitter you keep pretending not to be.

  • Finally, pick up and knit that afterthought heel — the moment where your sock says, “Look at me! I’m a real adult.”

Fast, fun, customizable, addictive — these socks will have you knitting pair after pair like you’re stocking up for a yarnpocalypse.
