Sjötorp is a small village on the coast of Lake Vänern, just north of Mariestad. It is said, that this is where the 200-year-old tourist attraction Göta Kanal starts.

About the pattern
The socks are knit from the toe up to the cuff with a gusset-heel flap heel. For that kind of heel, it is important to start with the gusset in time, therefore I have included tips and tricks on sizing in the pattern.

Sizes
XS (S) M (L) XL
The sock’s circumference around the ball of the foot is
14.5 (16.5) 19 (21) 23.5, to fit foot circumferences of
15-19 (17.5-21.5) 20-24 (22-26) 24.5-29.5 cm
The length of the sock is adjustable.

Yarn used
Organic Knitters Step Corriedale 80% corriedale/20% nylon, 200 m per 50g
Metreage: 

MC 140 (160) 190 (220) 260 metres
CC 100 (120) 140 (170) 200 metres

Gauge
34 sts and 45 rnds = 10x10 cm in stocking stitch after blocking
34 sts and 58 rnds = 10x10 cm in leg pattern after blockning
Normally I would recommend knitting a swatch to make sure your gauge is correct. When knitting socks, the toe can serve as a swatch, just be prepared that you might need to start the toe over again.

Needles & Notions
5 stitch markers

1 unique stitch marker for BOR m

1 clip marker

Tapestry needle 

Needles for working on a small circumference in size to obtain gauge, e.g. circular needles of at least 80 cm, DPNs, 23 cm circulars or CrazyTrios/FlexiFlops
When knitting the sample, gauge was obtained on 2.5 mm needles.
Note that I am a tight knitter so you may need to go down one or two needle sizes to obtain gauge.
