Product Details

The socks are knitted from the cuff down to the toe. Begin using the Long-tail Tubular Cast-on method for a neat edge, then continue in 1x1 Rib to give enough elasticity to the cuff. Work the leg of the socks in a brocade pattern, called Lattice stitch pattern. In order to create a sturdy and durable, yet beautiful heel, work the heel flap in the Rosette stitch pattern, then turn the heel using some short rows. After decreasing to create the gussets and get back to the original number of stitches, work the foot, then finish the socks either with the Short, Medium or Long Sideways Toe.
