Uetliberg

There is a wide pedestrian path along the ridge of Uetliberg. The way divides two contrasts: on one side of the mountain is the busy city life and on the other is the country life.

Uetliberg is a simple and straightforward sock, that only incorporates stocking stitch and reverse stocking stitch. The purled sole stitches merge into the heel to form a seam that embellishes the back of the leg.

The socks are knitted from toe-up, with a gusset and a triangular heel flap. They start with a clever cast-on. The bind-off forms an elastic edge.

To show the pattern best, I recommend a highly variegated yarn.
