“Actually, I’m highly logical, which allows me to look past extraneous detail and perceive clearly that which others overlook.”
– Hermione Granger, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Hermione Granger is well-known to be the smartest in her year. She is diligent about her studies, but her friends find her to also be knowledgeable, responsible, and downright precocious. These toe-up socks use yarnover increases for both the toe and gusset. Worked on top of the foot, these create distinctive design details that are also very useful for the sock construction. Twisted ribbing and reverse stockinette play back and forth in this design which any sock knitter will find is, like Hermione herself, Cleverly Practical.
