A detailed step by step video was also created and designed to either be worked alone or with the printed free pattern. The video will have Close Captioning added as well as Chapters.

ALL OF MY SOCK VIDEOS CAN ALSO BE FOUND ON MY WEBSITE UNDER THE MENU “My Patterns and VIDEOS” in the Socks-Cuff Down or Socks Toe Up.

GENERAL INFO:
This style of sock is also sometimes referred to as “Bed Socks”, “House Socks”, “Tube Socks”. This pattern is summarized as a regular cuff down sock with a 1x1 ribbed cuff and a mock rib leg/foot with a “no wrap” short row toe. This features a sock without a heel, making them a universal fit, without the bumpy actual ribbing leg/foot ridges with a good ribbed cuff to help these stay up on an average person.

-You need to know how to use your timed Ribber and which cylinder slot after 3 o’clock best aligns with your Ribber.*
-For best success, take each step one at a time however work each step clearly knowing where to be for the next part.
-I used a 72 cylinder with a 72 equal slot ribber dial (a 36 ribber dial would also work) on my Chambord CSM AccuKnitter. You can work this pattern on any machine with a Ribber.
-I always start my socks at the 3 o’clock as a rule and whenever adding my Ribber the Yarn Carrier is always at 7 o’clock with the first Ribber needle always added at that first empty cylinder slot after 3 o’clock. My Ribber aligns with the first cylinder slot after the 3 o’clock position.
-I always choose to work the Toe on the side of the machine closest to me (9-6-3)
-P abbreviation means Purl Stitch (using Ribber needle), K abbreviation means Knit Stitch
-Sock patterns generally don’t count a setup row as a worked row so as long as you make each sock identically….
-A working needle is a needle down into work. An out of work needle is a needle raised all the way up.
-You need to know how to how to transfer a Cylinder stitch to a Ribber Stitch, Ribber removal is explained.

RIBBER NOTE: There are many ways to begin using the Ribber on the CSM, some require more steps and thus more effort so to simplify things we will add the Ribber to the machine while we are still working with Scrap Yarn and for less needle and stitch transfer we start before that point with our cylinder already in a 1 x 1 setup (one empty slot, one cylinder needle repeat all the way around). This allows for a faster Ribber transition while allowing confirmation that your Ribber is correctly functioning.

THE BEST THING TO CONSIDER WHEN WORKING ANY SOCK RECIPE IS THAT YOU CAN EASILY PLUG YOUR OWN PREFERRED CUFF, HEEL OR TOE METHODS - IF THAT’S YOUR PREFERENCE

PLAN: Load the cylinder in 1x1* all the way around. | Cast On and work 10-15 scrap yarn rows | Add the Ribber | Add project yarn with Anchor Yarn Tail Technique| SELVAGE - 1 Ribbed row, 2 Knitted rows, switch to Ribbing | CUFF 40 rows 1P x 1K | SETUP - Change current 1 Purl x 1 Knit to Mock Rib 1 empty slot x 3 cylinder needles | Work Leg/Foot of 90 rows | (NO HEEL) | Change out all remaining Ribber needles to Cylinder Needles | Work final Foot row | Park Ribber (Remove) | TOE - work using No Wrap Method | Ravel Cord (optional) | Scrap yarn
