I’ve charted decreases for the calf section of the diced cuff pattern found in Veronica Gainford’s book. The pattern repeat is 14 sts so it’s hard to adjust the size but it’s stretchier than you think so it will fit a wide range of calf sizes.

I did not include instructions for heels and toes. I assume this will not be your first pair of socks and you’ll know how to do that already.

You’ll need two skeins of black and two skeins of cream. If you are tall, you may need three of each.

I have not test knit these charts since I converted them from hand drawn on graph paper to excel. Please let me know if there are any problems.
