The 50s Retro Bobby Socks pattern was originally designed for Ash and Eve Designs 2023 Advent Calendar.

They are knit from the toe up, starting with a wedge toe, It continues with plain vanilla stocking stitch for the remainder of the leg ending in a cute exaggerated ruffle.

The pattern is written for an average sock size but can be lengthened or shortened where desired. It is finished with a afterthought heel with instructions for both true afterthought and a forethought heel option. The pattern comes with four sizes and is easy to adjust and modify to achieve your perfect fit.
