Sizes are presented as DK sizes first, then Fingering sizes inside the square brackets. I highly recommend highlighting your size throughout the pattern before casting on.

Where a stitch count is the same for all sizes on the same weight, as in the Heel Turn, counts will be presented as follows: DK Fingering.

Samples shown in Size 2, knit on US 3 (DK) and US 1 (Fingering). Socks have negative ease with plenty of stretch to ensure a snug fit while still pulling easily over the heel.
