Product Details

Ex Animo (pronounced: X-on-ee-moh) is Latin for ‘from the heart’. These socks are intended to be a knitted hug for your feet, a woolly expression of love and support. The all-over ribbing accommodates every part of your foot, and the arch shaping provides a little bit of extra structure and support through the instep.

Ex Animo is worked cuff down and features a non-euclidian heel that doesn’t require any gusset stitches to be picked up, arch shaping immediately after the heel turn, and a rounded toe. The entire sock is worked in 2x2 ribbing, including the toe which is grafted closed.

Instructions are provided for 5 circumfereneces and the foot length is customizable. Choose a circumference that is 10-20% smaller than the actual circumference of the wearer’s foot as measured at the widest part. Instructions are both written and charted, and are needle neutral so you can use your preferred method for working small circumference in the round.
