Using this pattern, you can make a pair of very simple socks in any of the three available sizes for adults. The pattern includes instructions for adjusting the number of rounds to the foot length. The socks are knitted from the cuff down. First, you knit the ribbing, then the top of the sock. Instead of a traditional heel flap, these socks have a peasant heel, which is worked after the sock is finished.
You can use either circular needles or double-pointed needles.
Please note that this pattern describes making socks using the Magic Loop method, where 1st needle refers to the front needle, the one closer to you, and the 2nd needle is the back needle, further away from you.
