These beautiful top-down socks celebrate the mesmerizing dip stitch technique. Select one main color for the dip stitch leg and foot along with a coordinating contrast color pop for the cuff, heel, and toe. The instructions include notes to help you customize the length of the leg and foot. Choose between five sizes and cast on these elegantly ribbed socks.

Size 3 shown on a size US 13 / EU 47 size foot that has a 10.5″ / 27cm foot circumference. The sock fits with about 1″ / 2.5cm of negative ease.

Socks are designed to fit an actual foot circumference of 8 (10, 11, 12, 13)″ / 20 (25, 28, 30, 33)cm. The socks are designed to fit with negative ease. Choose a size with a finished foot circumference measurement that is approximately 1″ / 2.5cm smaller than your actual foot circumference, so that the sock will fit nice and snug on your foot. The lengths of the cuff, ankle, and foot are easily customizable by knitting more textured pattern repeats for a longer ankle or foot or fewer textured pattern repeats for a shorter ankle or foot.
