Construction

Dulaney Socks are worked cuff down with a Peasant Heel. This pattern gives instructions for the Magic Loop method, knitting one sock at a time on a single circular needle. The needle ends are referred to as N1 and N2.
The three-stitch cable panel on the sock instep can be easily knit without a cable needle. Instructions are given for with or without in the abbreviation section. Charts for the cable panel are given at the end of the pattern.
