Sizes
Feet comes in a variety of sizes, so one-size-fits-all socks don’t always work. To address this, I’ve created a sock pattern with three measurements to help you customize your knitted sock size. To find the right size, take these three measurements and then refer to the charts on the back of the pattern for instructions.
Measurements
The height of the shaft down to the heel: approx. 22 / 8,7 inches.
Gauge
32 stitches x 41 rows knitted in stockinette stitch on a 2.5 mm / 1 US circular needle = 10 x 10 cm /Â Â Â 4 x 4 in after washing and blocking.
Recommended needles
 2.5 mm (1.5 US) circular needle.
Notions
Stitch markers for knitting the heel, approx. 20-25 markers – preferably with a lock.
Suggested yarn
Yarn A: 100 g DROPS Nord (45% Alpaca, 30% Polyamide, 25% Wool). DK, Light Worsted. Each skein is approximately 50g (1.8 oz) = 170 m (186 yds).
