New Stevenson, Socks for men with Sensitive Soles

This design was made for a brother with diabetes who cannot feel his feet. Ordinary shop-bought socks were either so thin that they wear through quickly, or so thick that the socks themselves were causing trauma to the soles of his feet. After a bit of research I found some criteria for knitting socks for people with peripheral neuropathy.

Disclaimer:The Wee Duchess gives no assurance that this design will work for you, nor does she claim any special experience or qualifications in clothing for people with neurological conditions.

This design of course would be welcomed by any man with normal feet too! The instructions are for an average man’s foot, with adjustable length. The Wee Duchess gives hints and tips along the way and the trickier bits are written out in full for you.
