Fiber Accountant Socks
The Fiber Accountant socks are a cousin pattern to the original Sock Broker socks. This simple broken rib design is easy to memorize with just a bit of stretch and loads of fun.
This pattern includes instruction for knitting in a single color or multiple different colors with contrast at cuff, heel and toe as the knitter chooses. In addition, instructions are included for working both the standard heel size and how to modify the heel for higher (or lower) instep.
Supplies
Yarn: 463 yds, 100 grams
One standard sized skein of fingering weight yarn will make a pair of these socks as written for most sizes. A second skein may be needed for the largest size depending on any adjustments made to leg length.
Recommended Yarns:
Cozy Cauldron Soft Sock, 463 yards, 3 ply, 75% 19.5 micron extrafine SW Merino, 25% Nylon
Note: More or less yarn may be required if making a smaller size or larger than the smallest or largest size of this pattern. Variations to leg height and foot length will also impact yardage needed.
Needle(s): US1/2.25mm (or size needed to achieve gauge) in the type preferred for sock knitting (DPN, small circulars, magic loop). Pattern is written assuming the use of small circulars with the use of DPNs for picking up gusset stitches and working heel flap.
Notions: Stitch Markers (3), needle for weaving in ends, preferred row counting tool (if any)
Gauge: Approx 8 stitches per inch in stockinette
Finished Measurements
Sizes
Small (Medium, Large, X-Large, XX-Large).
Fit foot circumference:
7-8” (8-9”, 9-10”, 10-11”, 11-12”)
Size Notes:
The circumference above factors in allowance for about 1”-1.5” of negative ease around the foot.
The number of rows worked for the leg and foot may need to be adjusted based on individual preferences and size needs.
