Tube Sock on a Round Loom

Loom Knit Tube Socks

Tube socks are the best pattern for folks that really don’t like knitting a heel or a toe. But why stop there, let me tell you what else is great. You don’t have to knit a folded cuff, no specialty loom and no need to worry so much about the recipients shoe size. There are so many reasons why I just love this pattern. The fact that is looks so good makes it even better.

The combination of different knit stitches give the fabric a really cool, textured stitch. I believe this is going to be a favorite for lots of loom knitters, especially beginners.

SUPPLIES for Your Tube Socks

Tube Socks

The list below is recommended options, feel free to use what you have on-hand, including small gauge sock looms. Since it’s a tube socks, size is not a huge concern.

For your yarn choice I recommend using a wool blend. I like acrylic and wool, acrylic and nylon or a combination of these three fibers. Again, what ever you have on hand will also work well.
LOOM: 24-peg round loom
HOOK: Any loom hook – I use KB
STITCH MARKERS: Any type that fits your loom
YARN: 330 – 350 yards of worsted weight. I used Sheepish 
NEEDLE: Large eye – Blunt needle
BUTTON: Optional

    Hi Denise
    I was wondering if you could let me know the over all finished length of the tube sock? As my feet are only small and I am trying to gauge size for a pair I am doing for a friend who has medical problems that cause her to have above normal coldness in her feet.

    Also I enjoy the clarity of your videos very much. Thank you for what you do.

      Hi Lisa, they’re approximately 18 inches

  2. Christina February 26, 2018 at 1:57 am

    How many inches is 80 rows, please? It’s easier to measure than to keep track of so many rows…!

      Hi Christina, they’re approximately 18 inches

    I was doing fine until I did the binding off. it unraveled on me : (

    • Denise Canela March 9, 2018 at 5:38 pm

      Oh no…. did you try again. It’s a GREAT bind-off for sooooo many projects – well worth learning

    You are very talented in many areas as teaching is not an easy skill for everyone. I enjoy your demonstrations. On this tube sock, would it still turn out well with just the e wrap or just the u wrap? I ask because I have arthritis in my feet and textures are uncomfortable and sometimes very painful. I do like the tube socks though. I may be new to loom knitting but I do like it. Thank you.

    • Denise Canela February 21, 2018 at 7:55 pm

      Hi Laree, first thank you ! You can make it with just the eWrap but I find it a lot more bulky. The Uwrap should not create more discomfort then the eWrap

      • Laree February 22, 2018 at 1:49 pm

        Thank you. I appreciate your help.

    Thank you for your videos I’m a learner and love your methods and clear explanations.

    Can you advise if I can make a hat with pompom yarn? I see the scarf but would like to try a hat with it. Thank you

    • Denise Canela February 9, 2018 at 1:13 pm

      You can – you would be best to make a brimless hat and knit from the top down like the baby seed stitch hat. You problem may be cast-off I would suggest changing yarn – maybe knitting a row or two then bind-off using the super stretchy bind-off.

    Thanks so much for your videos. If it weren’t for you I don’t think I could do things like this. Your a good teacher and you have a very pleasant voice.

    I so enjoy your videos and website. You have such a good attitude. Here’s my question. You say your yarn choice is a worsted weight. That a size 4 right?

  8. Dee February 2, 2018 at 6:15 pm
