Hot Toddy socks are a fun, easy, cuff down, square heel, and barn toe design that features an easy stranded colorwork design. These unisex socks would peek nicely out from a pair of short boots.

One feature that may really appeal to some is there is no Kitchener stitch for the toes. It is a simple decline of decreases and a easy finish.

Size(s):
Medium, Large
Instructions are written for two stitch counts, namely 64 and 72 sts. The length of the sock can be adjusted. You want to start the toe at 2 inches/5 cm (Med) or 2.5 inches/6.5cm (Lg) less than desired finished sock foot length.

Needles:
Use the type of needles you prefer for socks. Double Pointed Needles or circular needles for magic loop.
- 2.75 mm/US #2 or best needle size for gauge.

Notions:
Stitch markers, stitch holder, tapestry needle (for weaving in ends), and progress keeper.
