June contacted us to ask us to help her find an easy and straightforward crochet pattern for socks. She would prefer to crochet these in bulky weight yarn and she is looking for a pattern which includes sizes Toddler, Young Child (3-5 years), Child (6-10 years) and Adult (medium and large). I’ve included some free and premium pattern links for socks which are crocheted with bulky weight yarn. I’ve also included a few free pattern links for socks which are crocheted in medium weight yarn at the very end of the post.

Premium Options (for sale)
One Designer I regularly purchase premium patterns from and recommend has a number of sock and slipper options available. I think these patterns would be a great option if you are ready to try a premium pattern for thick socks or slipper boots in bulky weight yarn. She also has what is called a Bulk Pattern Discount Option which I LOVE where if you want more than 1 pattern you can opt to purchase a ‘bundle’ for a lower price. For example 3 patterns for $12.00 is currently available in her Etsy Shop. You can check out the other Bundle Discounts she has HERE: Bulk Pattern Discounts
