I wrote this pattern describing all the steps, but most people have their preferred way of doing socks and probably all you need is the 10-row, 10-stitch pattern. This is the basic way I like to knit socks, changing up the pattern for the leg and foot.

If you need to adjust to get gauge, I would suggest changing the needle size. This is a 10-stitch pattern and you’d have to increase or decrease your number of stitches by 10.
