About the pattern The socks are worked in rib on both leg and instep. The socks can also be worked on a circular needle with the Magic Loop technique.

Knitting 2 stitches together (k2tog) can also be worked with the SSK technique: sl1k, sl1k, knit these 2 sts together.

Leg

Co 56 (60, 64, 68) sts and distribute them on 4 double pointed needles. Work rib in the round like this: *k2, p2*, repeat from * to * until the leg measures 4.7’’ (5.5’’, 6.3’’, 7.1’’) / 12 (14, 16, 18) cm. The beg of the rnd should now be between 2 knit sts.

Heel

Distributing for the heel

Distribute the sts so that there are 13 (14, 15, 16) sts in rib, 2 knit sts, 13 (14, 15, 16) sts in rib = 28 (30, 32, 34) sts on a double pointed needle for the heel. The sts on top of the instep are put on hold on 2 double pointed needles.

Heel flap

Work the 28 (30, 32, 34) heel sts in stockinette stitch in the flat, until the heel flap measures 2’’ (2.2’’, 2.2’’, 2.4’’) / 5 (5.5, 5.5, 6) cm. End with a WS row. Place a marker at the middle of the heel after 14 (15, 16, 17) sts. From here, take measurements for the foot length before the toe.

Work the heel decrease like this:

Row 1, RS: Work until 8 (9, 9, 10) sts remain, k2tog tbl, k1, turn.

Row 2, WS: Work until 8 (9, 9, 10) sts remain, p2tog, p1, turn.

Row 3, RS: Work until 7 (8, 8, 9) sts remain, k2tog tbl, k1, turn.

Row 4, WS: Work until 7 (8, 8, 9) sts remain, p2tog, p1, turn. Continue like this with 1 st less before the decrease, until all sts on the needle are worked. On the next round, pick up 14 (15, 15, 16) stitches on each side of the heel flap. Distribute the heel sts on 2 needles.

Gusset

Place a marker on each side at the transition from heel flap to instep.

Gusset decreases

The gusset is knit with stockinette stitches. Work until 2 sts before marker, k2tog, work the instep sts in rib until the second marker, k2tog tbl, work the remaining sts in rib. Work 1 rnd in rib. Decrease on every other rnd until there are 56 (60, 64, 68) sts.

Foot

Work until the work measures approx 7.5’’ (8.1’’, 8.1’’, 8.7’’) / 19 (20.5, 20.5, 22) cm from the mark on the heel. The toe measures approx 2’’ (2.2’’, 2.2’’, 2.4’’) / 5 (5.5, 5.5, 6) cm.

Toe

The toe is worked in stockinette stitch. Place 1 marker on each side so that there are 28 (30, 32, 34) sts for the instep and sole, respectively. Work until marker.

Toe decreases

Rnd 1:

1st and 2nd double pointed needle: k1, k2tog tbl, k until 3 sts before marker, k2tog, k1.

3rd and 4th double pointed needle: k1, k2tog tbl, k until 3 sts before marker, k2tog, k1.

4 sts are decreased on the rnd.

Work 1 rnd in stockinette stitch.

Repeat the decreases on every other rnd, until a total of 20 (20, 20, 20) sts remain.

Bo all sts. Stitch the hole together with Kitchener Stitch. Make another sock following the same procedure.
