[@Tuteate]

IMPORTANT: An improved version of this project (with elastic cuffs and better heels&toes) is available here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4e1qH2GgMeobaM

[@CynicalChick777]

Thanks for this. Your method of shaping heels is far simpler and easier to understand that some of the others I've seen. Can't wait to get started.

[@Tuteate]

Valerie B :) Thank you! I hope you enjoy making this!

[@righteousgroove]

You make THE BEST knitting tutorials. I don't know where I would be without you! Thanks to you, I'm knitting socks for myself, as well as hats and headbands for all my friends for Christmas :)

[@saraharrison1079]

I have watched a ton of videos trying to learn how to do this. This is the BEST video I have found!!!! Thank you so much!!

[@Tuteate]

Sara Harrison thank you so much for such a positive feedback! :)

[@ashgreenspinner1503]

Just wanted to share that I REALLY appreciate the soothing music. What a lovely experience. Great video. Thank you!

[@Tuteate]

Ash Greenspinner thank you! We will tell Magluss (the musician who composes and plays it) :)

[@kathycampion6809]

best.video.ever. SO helpful-, not a ton of other junk we don't need, no talking that we don't need- absolutely LOVE this video- just got my loom on Friday and now on Sunday, I already have my first pair of socks. Can't wait to watch all of your others! XOXOX you rock!

[@fluffyspit]

Who knew! Well I didn’t! Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have the looms, which have been gathering dust for years because I made so many hats I bored myself...I simply did not know that socks could be made. Your tutorial is so clear and easy to follow. I’m super excited...here comes me making a thousand socks! Haha!

[@jistaface]

At last I see why I was making big holes in the heels! Thank you! What a beautifully clear, elegantly presented instructional -- a lot of thought has gone into it, I think. And no distracting chatter, yaay!

[@Tomatenfroschsalat]

jistaface can you remember how to get rid of these holes? I have the same problem.

[@angiejelinski2997]

Love these! Would love to see a tutorial for a tall sock with cables in the future! Your tutorials are the best with captions, music, and no talking! Thanks!

[@Tuteate]

Thank you Angie!! Ok, we take note of your request :-) We will try to share a video tutorial on how to loom knit tall socks with cables.

[@ashleylaws3586]

Just finished my first sock! Starting the mate! Love your tutorial!

[@148kmartinez]

Yay !!!! I did my first sock following your tutorial... ready to finish the second sock. Thanks again you guys are awesome. Great video !

[@carolinesmith6091]

Katherine what size feet are these dimensions for roughly

[@bethromero6981]

Woohoo!!! My very first pair of loom socks! I feel like I can do anything! Thank you so much for your wonderful video!

[@johnr.8723]

Heel tutorial starts at 6:58. 👍🏻

[@JonCampos-kh2bw]

Thank you

[@wintergreen1784]

I’m so excited to try this. Thank you so, so much; seeing all these videos with what can be done with a hat loom opens up this whole new realm of possibilities for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

[@annflowers4625]

This video was so easy to follow. Love the way you made the heel and didn't have a hole on the end of the toe. I took two days to make one sock but have to do other things so it wasn't constant. Use regular yarn and a fuzzy yarn and use the e-wrap for all the stitches. First one came out great. Now working on the mate. Thank you Tuteate.

[@phillydragonfly]

I have been so intimidated by the thought of trying to make socks. This tutorial has made me feel excited to try it! Thank you so so much. ❤️

[@kaydoesrandomshiz]

This video makes things so much easier for me! Thanks for posting it! I have already knitted a pair of baby socks for my new baby cousin

[@barkers16]

I made a pair of these for myself - worked first time! My dad loved them so much he's asked for a pair, that's his Christmas present sorted! Many thanks for this really clear tutorial! Makes sock making easy and fun 😄

[@Tuteate]

barkers16 thanks for your comment! So glad to know it's been useful to you! :) Would you like to share a photo of your result? (if so, please send us an email to [e-mail]) Thank you!

[@dottielmt]

Thank you SO much for this AWESOME tutorial! I started my first pair on January 5th, just using one skein of yarn (1 color), and finished my 2nd sock on Jan 8th. I only used the one color because I wanted to get the basics down first. My next project is using the 3 colors like you did here. :)

[@Ylangzee]

I just bought my first loom, and I am following your tutorial step by step. Wow, I'm impress, Thank you for sharing and making it so easy

[@Tuteate]

Thank you Ylangzee!! So glad to know this video helped you on how to start loom knitting! We hope you enjoy our videos :)

[@KittyKazoo_Art]

This video is great! I've been into loom knitting for six or seven years and yet have never learned how to knit socks, although it was one of the first things I wanted to try. Thank you for this easy-to-follow video! This will help a lot when I go to make my first socks tomorrow!

[@Tuteate]

+Kittykazoo12212 thank you so much! Hope you get a nice pair :)

[@2BoTube2]

This is perfect. I have looked a long time for a loom knit Sock. The captions are sooo helpful. Thank you so much!

[@elyanagarcia130]

Wow!! This is the best sock tutorial ever!!!! Thank you!!! As soon as I get off work I will be making my FIRST pair of socks! 👍🏼 thank you again

[@MikeRankinGrandPappy]

Hey, I did this and it worked. Thank you for taking the time to post the instructions. I appreciate it.

[@Tuteate]

***** thank you for your feedback! :) We'd love to see your result (if you want to, you can send us a picture to [e-mail]). Have a nice day!

[@MrPetrochelly]

The easiest way for begginers! The best instructions easy to follow! I Can, you Can, everyone can!!!

[@dollilatham5156]

This was so much easier to understand than a lot of the instructions I have read. Thank you! I made my first sock!

[@Tuteate]

Dotchi Anni thank you so much :) So glad to know you liked it!

[@HankieTOK715]

Just finished my 1st ever sock following this tutorial, it's amazing, thank you! Thank you for using captions, I find it much easier to follow than just verbal instructions. Now onto the second sock!

[@Tuteate]

Thank you for your nice and positive feedback! Good luck with the second one! You almost finished this project! :)

[@misskalli]

I made two pairs of socks using this video! Thank you so so so so much! I'm planning on making quite a few more pairs! Forgot to take a photo of the second pair before I gave them as a gift, but I'll send a photo of the first pair :) Thanks so much!

[@convict13]

My favourite way to close toes. So simple and it works everytime.

[@barngirl39]

Awesome!! I can't wait to make these. I love how the toe is not gathered!! Thank you for your wonderful videos!!!

[@anoweyeun3833]

I finally did it! been trying for years to figure it out, and your video help me so much! thank you again

[@Tuteate]

Laura Schallert :) thank you! So glad to know this video helped you!

[@chrissy07girl]

I tried using what I know about hand knitting socks and used my martha Stewart loom. I ended up using stitch holders, and resizing the loom for the gusset. Then I did the toe in two parts, then sewing it all together. This method is so much easier!

[@ConnerDestron]

That's pretty cool, we've got a potholder/hot pad that looks like that, it was also handmade.. I'll bet they're pretty warm!

[@creatingwithnini]

Thank you for this! I really wanted to make socks for Christmas and now I'll definitely be able to.

[@queenieannfrese5194]

Thanks so much. I've seen so many tutorials that suck. Now I can make xmas socks for my grandson. thanks so much it's the best sock toturial I've come across. I just stated loom knitting last July and I'm hooked. Don't mean to be repetitive, but is a damn good video.

[@IMWikkid2012]

I just wanted to say thank you for the great tutorials! I never got the hang of knitting or crocheting but the loom makes it easy. I'm new to looming and find all the reading and abbreviations hard to follow but your videos make it easy by getting right to the point! I love them! I've done the slouchy beanie hat with your guidance and got it done right the first time and loved it so much i've made 3 so far. Next will be the fingerless mittens and socks. Love your work, please keep making these great videos :) waiting for your hooded cowl tutorial in english to be uploaded later today. Thank you thank you thank you :)

[@Tuteate]

WOW! Thank you too for this wonderful comment! :) You made us really happy with your words!!! A huge and long and warm (and even loom knitted) hug! (BTW, here you have: How to Loom Knit a Hooded Cowl (DIY Tutorial) )

[@IMWikkid2012]

Tuteate You're very welcome! And i'm on my way to watch it right now :)

[@ddofat]

Your video is clear and very easy to understand. Thank you.

[@Tuteate]

Thank you very much Donesia! So glad to know you enjoy it!

[@andreya441]

thankyou...i literally just made these in 2 hours and they turned out awsome...very easy...this is the 2nd project i have completed using a loom...your video was extremely helpful and easy to follow☺

[@RhodriApHywel]

Excellent tutorial. Heel wasn't that difficult, if you follow the instructions. All the instructions given are simple and easy to follow.

[@janetvelez7746]

Wow thank you so much for this im going to try to make socks,blankets,beanies & scarfs all year round thru december & im going to donate them to cancer patients ☺

[@cstuder67]

I have watch almost all of your tutorials and everyone of them has worked out perfectly. Thank so much 😄

[@ginynight3739]

Thank you for this. I learnt a lot in a video that is not too long but explained it all. Loved the change of colours. But the most satisfying part was the toe part. In most tutorials all the stitches are gathered together in one go. Here you show a nice way of finishing it properly. It looks very professional. I will definitwly apply your method.

[@halleyjarrett7211]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. This is the best one I've been able to find. The other I looked at left things out and made things more complicated than necessary. I especially love the casting on technique you show. The other technique I've seen is difficult to do.

[@Tuteate]

Halley Jarrett thank you so much for your feedback :) So glad to know you liked it!

[@Prayer4Pat]

I love it! This is explained in a way that even I can figure out. thank you

[@marianeladiaz9]

I absolutely love this project....it was so easy to follow,but my favorite is that there's no one talking!

[@Tuteate]

Thank you Marianela! Thanks for your positive comment :) So glad you liked this video

[@nadineschommer9775]

Thanks for the instructions! I'm making a huge sock that my mom can slide over her cast to keep her toes warm and protect her bedding from the rough plaster.

[@thelittleknitter4411]

I really like the toe bit like the heel, you make it look so easy. I will try this now, thank you. Kim....

[@karenanderson4582]

This is an excellent video. Very easy to understand. I thank you so much for sharing this information. I really enjoyed this and I can't wait to try this? With these videos being shown how to make many things, brings the joy and achievements back into wanting to continue to make things. Thanks again.

[@Chowder_head]

You're video is the BEST. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I'm sure that I will be able to knit socks on loom now that I saw your video.😁

[@maridelregala8742]

Thank you❤You're tutorial is the best of all that i have watched! And i have watched a lot while waiting for my looms😂. I appreciate this soooo much!

[@erinsinclair-pequeen2052]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I just made my first sock :)

[@minnielioliver2475]

Took me around 3 hrs to get all the weaving correct when I learned the correction as view in this video It went like cakewalks Really more easy this way by the loom Love making these fingerless gloves now ❤

[@smilesallday13]

Can I extend the sock to make it knee high length?

[@Tuteate]

Hi 123kaelee123 ! (we answer you here, because it seem we cannot reply your comment) Yes, you could maybe knit a little looser. You could also try avoiding to make the brim (the folded part is maybe too tight to be higher on the leg...). Hope this helps!

[@carmenaviles3446]

wish me luck im gonna try it rn

[@carmenaviles3446]

wish me luck im gonna try it rn

[@elizabethevans2652]

Can you make these with out the brim do you just skip over it?

[@summerkimminau9212]

Excellent video! Very easy to follow. Thank you!

[@Tuteate]

Summer Quintana thank you so much for your positive feedback! ^_^

[@Bomilyar]

You are the best of loom knit

[@Tuteate]

Hi Nikki Fronczek! Yes, you can cast on as you described too :)

[@MsTameko]

Thanks for sharing a wonderful tutorial. Your instruction is perfect. I can't wait to make these socks!

[@Tuteate]

:) Thank you very much MsTameko! Hope you enjoy this project!

[@dorasaldarriaga5106]

Love it. Thank you for that wonderful tutorial. Bravo!!!!!

[@Tuteate]

Thank you Dora! :)

[@kajunboy6903]

I want to attempt this today. I’m scared of the heel part I must admit but gotta try

[@oliver-bv5rj]

Also to quicken the looming technique I use a cut up piece of straw and slide it on the end. It's really helpful

[@benjaminkoval3807]

Thanks for the reply back tuteate it did work for making a Christmas stocking from the 36 peg loom only using half the pegs.

[@5PercentPresent]

12:17 (heel/toe) and 16:40 (taking off the loom) are the marks I keep coming back to reference around this time of year, lol.

[@SewEasyPlease]

Awesome video! Definitely going to try this out for the winter

[@zainylainy1]

That was a very comprehensive tutorial. Thank you. I just want to know, who figures all this stuff out! It’s amazing the thought that goes into this!

[@vickistrickler9699]

Excellent video. Very instructive.

[@jerricasantel2547]

loved this video. so simple to understand! thanks for the great video

[@jenniferrieckman4289]

Thank you I do believe I can do that. Your video was extremely helpful. Thank you so much. I love how you made it so I wouldn't need extra knitting needles to do the toe part. For cuff to toe socks. I was going to attempt the toe up socks starting with a Kitchener stitch or something like that. But yours actually looks much easier. I may eventually try toe up Kitchener (I hope I am spelling and using the correct term.) But I am gonna try yours first. Love it. And it looked like you were using regular yarn not sock yarn. I don't have sock yarn so I am really happy for that as well. Thank you, thank you.

[@johnr.8723]

Great visual and explanation on the heel..also liked how you doubled the top, if I’m saying that right!

[@Tuteate]

Thank you so much for your feedback, John!

[@jolenegoodwin6746]

WOW AMAZING COLORS

[@teastress]

OMG I so love this video it's so simple for the heel thank you

[@heatherwilson8957]

This was the best tutorial I found for the heel and toe. Very well done for a beginner to learn.

[@lukki7ster]

[@daniellecunningham8534]

Super super helpful. Thanks!!

[@Tuteate]

+Lance Hancock great! Glad to know it was helpful for you :)

[@julie-annlovatt-neevernon8691]

Tuteate, your tutorial is great. Socks on a loom always look like they'd be difficult, but after watching your video, it gave me great confidence. I'm not a fan of the flat stitch though, so I will be trying different things with each pair that I make, to see which techniques work best for me. Regarding the looseness of the heel, can it be done where you wrap the peg 3 times then pull the bottom loop over the upper 2 loops? I use this on hats I make and it makes it less 'holey'. I've not tried it yet on bits where there is no full round, but I wonder if anyone else has had success with it?

[@Tuteate]

Julie Vernon hi! I think you must be right, the problem may be solved by working the sides of the heel in the way you said :) Thank you so much for your tip (let's see if anybody in this room has tried this)

[@julie-annlovatt-neevernon8691]

Once I've finished the pair I'm working on (it's taking me ages, with it being my first ever pair lol), if no one else has tried it and posted their results, I'll try it on the next pair and let you know how it goes.

[@julie-annlovatt-neevernon8691]

Tuteate I thought I'd update you on how I've got on with the socks. I made bed socks for my Grandad for Christmas (or he can wear them as slipper socks if he wishes). I used a loom that has extra pegs which I bought from an online store. With the extra pegs giving a smaller gauge, it allowed for a tighter stitch on the heel. They came out pretty good for a beginner. The first pair I started, I was not happy with because of the heel being loosely stitched, so I'm going to restart it, luckily I had only done about three quarters of the first sock.

[@ΧριστίναΜαγουλα-β1ξ]

Trying to figure out how to do this with no holes on the sides when finishing heel. Have you figured it out. I like this heel because easy to make but The holes in the end disappoint me..so I'm not going to continue with this heel unless there is some solution. Thanks.

[@patdunn6147]

awesome clear video thank you!!!

[@shannondelchamps1794]

I love Tuteate ideas and videos!

[@Tuteate]

We love you are here and you always take time to leave us your comments! :)

[@angiewilliams3701]

do you think this could easily be made into a christmas stocking? of course, as long as i make the sock itself longer. should i use thicker yarn? thanks

[@hazel43717]

How many rows is “several rows”?

[@tammi67able]

Awesome job!

[@Tuteate]

tamia11 falanna thank you so much! :)

[@ashleykeddy5019]

I just finished my first sock. Great video!! This was the first thing I have ever knit, so I am very impressed :) I was wondering though, should this fit an adult? Mine fit my 9yr old (size 3 shoes) perfectly. I coulod not get the sock on over my heel :( It was just too tight to fit on me. Could I have knit it too tight? I`d really love a pair for myself! Any suggestions welcome :)

[@Tuteate]

Ashley Keddy hi! How thick is your yarn? We used a yarn for knitting needles of 6mm-7mm and the result fit an adult. If the cuff is too tight, maybe you could try working it in elastic stitch (1knit - 1 purl) as we did for this hat: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIGpq6eaZZZnaa8

[@kitticutey95]

i personally dont like how they end up looking but my mom loves them and its an easy project :D

[@nellyflores9661]

Hola, muchas gracias por compartir este vídeo, muy claras las explicaciones, gracias por su tiempo, saludos.

[@Tuteate]

Muchísimas gracias Nelly por tu bonito mensaje! :) Por aquí nos alegra mucho saber que te gustó el tutorial!

[@maramakesjournals2319]

Excellent!

[@maggiezorn4591]

thanx soooo much for the easy video. I'm putting my own twist on it and hoping it will turn out all right!! do you have other videos?

[@rmthornton]

Is there a reason you switch to e-wrap stitch for the heel and toe? I'm finding that my e-wrap heel is loose and ugly compared to the rest of the sock (which might just be because I'm still a newbie), so I'm wondering what the effect would be to leave it as u-wrap stitch like the rest of the sock.

[@SuziQZ]

I have been loom knitting for a few years. Just learning socks. I made a pair for my husband and had the same problem. So i did the entire sock ( except the brim) in a u knit stitch. Came out perfect.
