These toe-up socks in a simple pattern, interesting but not too interesting to knit, are suitable for a broad variety of colorways. The construction and patterning allow easy, on-the-go adjustments for variability in both yarn and feet. The sock has a reinforced gusset-and-flap heel for durability and improved fit.

Gauge
The pattern is flexible, permitting easy adjustment for different gauges. If your round gauge doesn’t match the gauge listed, you will need to calculate the length to work the foot before the heel and gusset, as follows:
• Length before starting gusset = Full foot length – heel and gusset length
• Heel and gusset length = 38 (40, 44, 48, 50 rounds) ÷ number of rounds per inch
