Knitting Kit for Elisabeth socks
The Elisabeth sock is worked with a wide, double-folded rib cuff that continues with double cables down the ancle and on the top of the foot. The Elisabeth sock is designed to be worn with both sneakers and short boots, where the decorative rib cuff will be visible and add a stylish touch to your outfit. The sock is designed with a classic reinforced heel flap and a grafted toe, ensuring a comfortable fit.
Elisabeth socks is knitted in our sock yarn Önling No 18, a soft and durable yarn blend consisting of 75% wool (non-superwash) and 25% recycled PET from plastic bottles. This makes them both comfortable and strong – a long-lasting and stylish everyday sock.

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a knitting kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In some cases, however, you will not receive a pattern as part of your order:
If you buy a Yarn kit, you will only receive yarn for the design in question. Yarn kits are only sold for selected designs from external designers, where we do not have the right to sell the pattern. When a kit is sold without pattern, you can always see it in the header, which will say (excl pattern) in the header.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- For a select, few designs from PetiteKnit, we will add a printed pattern to the parcel - but for most PetiteKnit designs, you will not receive a pattern, as they are mainly sold as yarn kits (excl pattern). In these cases you will always be able to see it in the header, where it says (excl pattern).
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
