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. We hope you’ve had a blast exploring these charming designs that celebrate the wonders of everyone’s favorite foot warmers.

So, grab your needles, thread ’em up, and get ready to embark on a stitching adventure like no other.

Build a Snowman in Cross Stitch

I love little cross stitch patterns, but it’s especially fun when a small cross stitch design has a lot of detail going on. That’s the case with this collection of national parks cross stitch patterns from Stitchin Madness.

This isn’t really a pattern, it’s a full-on book with designs for all 63 of the national parks in the United States (which includes the Virgin Islands). Each design is unique and shows a distinctive feature or the park or what the landscape there looks like.

The book includes a full table of contents and numbered pages to make it easy to find the design you want to make.

Each design is 40 by 40 stitches without the park name included, and 40 by 50 stitches if you add the name. They’re designed for 14 count fabric and if you make all of them you’ll use 72 colors, though each individual pattern uses a lot fewer colors than that.

These would be so fun to make as you visit different parks, or make the whole set to frame together if you’re a big travel person who loves the national parks. They’d also be fun as greeting cards or even ornaments for your tree with the year you visited added to it somewhere.

The photo above shows a nice collection of some of the patterns in hoops, but I could see them done in little frames as well. This should give you a taste for what the designs look like and might even include your favorite park (mine is Acadia because I went there on my honeymoon; it isn’t on here but you can see it on the product page.

If you’re ready to stitch the national parks, or even just a handful of them, check out this pattern book from Stitchin Madness on Etsy. I’d love to know which national park is your favorite or what you would stitch up first!
