Sock Themed Cross Stitch Patterns

I will admit this theme for a roundup, sock themed cross stitch patterns, is a little bit niche. But as a person who does a lot of different kinds of crafts, I love it when they can come together and overlap in different ways.

So when I saw the free pattern from Durene Jones cross stitch showing a sock missing a heel with the words “darn it,” I knew I had to share it. While holey socks happen to everyone, it’s particularly poignant to a person who knits, and especially to someone who has knit and darned a lot of socks. The design is 40 by 55 stitches and uses six colors in the cross stitch as well as black backstitching.

But I didn’t think one sock related cross stitch pattern was enough, so I went looking for more.

I found “You knock my socks of” from Nerdy Little Stitcher on Etsy, which features a happy little pair of socks you can stitch in whatever color you like. (Note: as of this writing the product description on the sales page is incorrect, so I can’t give you any details for sure.)

If you like your patterns printed, you can go old school to get a copy of this Sock Knitter cross stitch pattern from October House Fiber Arts. I love the little socks on the line, and you can make them whatever colors and patterns you like. Since I’ve designed socks I’d love to make this pattern with socks that look like socks I’ve actually made! It’s 107 by 63 stitches and uses six colors.

Or you can get a little sarcastic about socks with this printed pattern, designed by Imaginating and sold at 123 Cross Stitch. This black and white design declares that some days are just socks. You can decide if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.

Alrighty then, folks! We’ve reached the end of this fabulously cozy roundup of Sock Themed Cross Stitch Patterns. It’s been a wild ride filled with stitches, threads, and a whole lot of socky goodness.

Build a Snowman in Cross Stitch

As I write this, we’re on day three of an expected four days full of rain, so it’s no wonder I wanted to share some sunny cross stitch patterns.

This pretty sun from Anchor via Yarnspirations uses five different shades of cheery yellow. It measures 48 by 48 stitches, or 3.5 inches/8.5 cm square on 14 count fabric.

This smiling yellow sun is a great beginner cross stitch project. The design is from Bella Rose Craft and uses three colors. When worked on 14 count fabric it fits perfectly in a 4-inch hoop.

Add another color and you’ve got this sweet sun cross stitch pattern from Mamas Crafty Basket. It’s also a little larger, at 44 by 44 stitches, but it’s still a great choice for a new stitcher. That comes out to just over 3 inches/7.87 cm on 14 count fabric.

I love this cheerful sun from Sacred Thread Design because it looks like a fancied up version of something a child would draw. This one would be great for a nursery or child’s room, or anywhere that needs a ray of sunshine. It measures 99 by 95 stitches and uses 16 colors. On 14 count fabric it will come out to 7.1 by 6.8 inches, or 18 by 17.2 cm if that’s the way you measure.

If you like your sun with a side of moon, and maybe a planet, this set from Ma Galina Lativa may be what you’re looking for. It’s shown as two different hoops but you could stitch them on the same piece of fabric and frame them together if you’d rather. The sun by itself measures 67 by 66 stitches, while the moon is 52 by 40.

And to finish up by taking it in a completely different direction, there’s this colorful folk art sun by Tiny House Studio BC. It got let into the party because the sun is smiling, but this is definitely not as easy a pattern as the others I’ve shared. This one uses a whopping 42 colors and is 140 by 175 stitches. That’s 10 by 12.5 inches, or 25.4 by 31.75 cm on 14 count fabric.
