Worked in the round, this versatile sock pattern offers a seamless knitting experience by providing both cuff-down and toe-up written directions, catering to your preferred sock construction. You’ll also find a clear and concise chart for the pattern motif, ensuring that you have all the tools you need to create these beautiful socks. While the pattern comes with instructions for a peasant heel (afterthought heel using scrap yarn), it’s adaptable to your personal preferences and unique feet. Links for alternative heels have been included!

With multiple sizes thoughtfully incorporated, you can easily achieve the perfect fit for yourself or for the lucky recipient of your hand-knit socks. This pattern truly embraces size-inclusivity, making it a wonderful option for a wide range of individuals.

We’ve written this sock pattern for the magic loop knitting method in mind. However, you can also work on double-pointed needles or mini-circulars instead if you prefer (just use extra markers to denote the placement of the heel or toe shaping).
