Inverse Socks (Top Down Version)
Toe-Up version available here.
Don’t like walking on purl bumps? Don’t like purling a lot? Inverse is a reversible top-down sock with flap heel, worked with the stockinette side out for ease of knitting. Prefer the look of the knit side? It works that way too!
The directions are based on stitch markers, so any needle style can be used (double points, 2 circulars, or Magic Loop). A look up chart allows you to knit based on men’s shoe sizes (although the lower stitch counts can work for many women’s feet too, with finer needles or yarn), and the worksheet provided means you can pick a size based on your own gauge. Included under “Techniques”: a brief description of wrap & turn, and grafting resources.
Another option: continue the stitch pattern all the way around the leg! (Instructions for that included as well.)
