The 4-0-1 was written after I knit my 400th pair of socks.

I hope you will be able to knit many well-fitting socks using this pattern.

What you will need:

  • 1 skein of fingering weight yarn with roughly 400-420 meters per 100 grams

  • 2.75 mm double pointed knitting needles OR needle size to get gauge

  • tapestry needle

To go with this pattern, I recorded three different tutorials:

  • how to cast on for knitting in the round on DPNs

  • how to knit the heel

  • how to close the socks using a three-needle-bind-off on the inside

The tutorials are linked in the pattern and can also be found on my YouTube channel.
