Ivy and Nettle

The pattern includes two ways of working the socks: cuff-down and toe-up. The cuff down version uses the square heel shaping, whereas the toe-up version features the short row heel shaping. You can adjust the leg length by working more or less rounds of Ivy and Nettle Stitch Pattern. The foot length is also easily adjustable. Just remember that finished foot length needs to be ½“ 1cm shorter than the actual foot length and the foot circumference needs to be 1” 2.5cm less than the actual foot circumference for a comfortable fit. Instructions for alternative cuff options are included.

There is a low-vision format included. This version is written in 22 point sans serif font (Arial) in all black text. It has no italics. All of the directions are fully written out. There is no chart in this pattern.
