Fleece socks. Socks-slippers made from leftover knitwear or unnecessary items

Well, in principle, you can use them instead of house slippers - especially if the fleece is thick, but I usually use them for their intended purpose, that is, as socks under hiking shoes, under hiking boots, sneakers, combat boots...
They really turn out to be cozy, warm and soft, this is such an economical option when you don’t want to spend money on expensive warm “breathable socks”, like my husband’s, for example (600 rubles for a pair of socks - no, I’m sorry). In principle, they wear differently, depending on the neatness of the internal seams and the quality of the fleece, but for example, my feet don’t sweat in them at all and nothing rubs anywhere. I don’t like wool socks - they are itchy, take longer to dry and are heavier (which is a very important factor when packing a backpack - 10 grams here, 10 grams there, that’s an extra kilo), but these are soft, skin-friendly, quick-drying and much lighter.
The idea of ​​these wonderful, from my point of view, things belonged to a certain girl-hiker, unfortunately unknown to me, with whom my husband communicated at one time. She explained to him how this thing is sewn and provided him with patterns, and now I am happy to use the fruits of someone else’s labor.
The sock is sewn from two parts with literally two seams. It’s very quick and cool, and once it wears out, you don’t mind throwing it away.
Now I'll try to insert a diagram (sorry, crooked;))
This is part 1 - foot

and this is part 2 - from the heel and above

We sew the curved part of part 1 to the curve (the crooked part :)) of part two, then fold the resulting nonsense in half and use a single seam to connect the whole thing from the toe (this is where the top double squiggle is :)) to the top part (this is where on the second part of the part it’s supposed to be straight, but in the picture it’s just a little less crooked). We wear, of course, with this long seam up and not from the side of the foot :) however, it’s clear there.
Once again I apologize for the confusion of the presentation.

    These socks will keep you warm in the harshest winter.

    For you, the easiest way to sew socks from an old sweater, without patterns. And so, we take a sweater and cut off its sleeves, cut it to the length that is needed for socks, plus five to seven centimeters. Now we put our sleeve on the leg, so that the elastic of the sleeve is at the bottom, on the sole. Now close the fingers and make a basting in a semicircle around the toes. Now we stitch it and cut off the excess. The top needs to be cut off evenly, folded, put an elastic band so that our socks don’t fall off, and stitched. That's all, our socks are ready.

    By making our own socks from old knitwear or other fabrics, we can save a lot and, of course, show ourselves on the creative side - creating truly unique items of clothing. I offer you patterns that you can use to make socks like these:

    Anyone can buy socks in a store, but I think it would be more interesting to sew them. Sewn socks that you sewed will be pleasant to wear, because you made them yourself.

    Here's an example of blood sock:

    You can also make a pattern like this:

    You can sew socks from an old sweater. You can also use micro fleece as a fabric.

    I especially like socks made from fleece. It turns out to be gentle, pleasant to the body, and most importantly warm and durable.

    In order to sew socks, you first need to create a pattern. Since fleece stretches, you need to take one size smaller so that the socks do not stretch too much while wearing. The pattern details should look like this:

    The length of this part depends on how high the socks you want to sew.

    The length of the cuff is equal to the circumference of your leg (calf). The length of the heel also depends on the expected height of the toe.

    We sew the parts together so that the point numbers in the parts match. First we sew the heel to the sole (1, 2, 5). Then we connect the upper part of the sock to the sole with the heel according to the numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. We connect the cuff into a circle, bend it in half lengthwise and sew it to the sock.

    Socks can not only be knitted, but also sewn. We always have time to buy, but creating something of our own is always interesting. In order to sew beautiful socks, you need not only a pattern, of course, but also fabric. It is best to choose a fabric that will both look good and be pleasant to the skin of your feet. An old fleece jacket, sweater, and trousers will do. You can take pieces of Polartek and so on.

    There are a lot of patterns. They are all similar to each other, the only thing that can distinguish them from each other is the degree of complexity. I suggest a fairly easy option.

    This pattern is suitable for sewing socks for men. Foot size from 42 to 44.

    We place the pattern on the fabric and transfer the contours with chalk. Don't forget to add a little for allowances. Cut it out and now comes the hard part. You need to carefully sew all the details on a typewriter. You can also use an overlocker to prevent the fabric from fraying (for example, socks from an old knitted sweater need an overlocker). If you are sewing, for example, insulated fleece socks, then you can do without an overlock stitch.

    And here is the finished result. Anatomically, these socks are very comfortable.
