Ursula socks are named after the person who inspired the design and their dislike of baggy socks. The all-over rib pattern adds interest to a simple beginners sock pattern.

This pattern will look great in any hand dyed yarn, I have also recommended west Yorkshire spinners yarn as I prefer to use this for contrast heel and toes, Contrast heel and toes are optional you can knit this in all one colour or even use up scraps of old yarn, feel free to play around with it how you like.

Sock Tip, after placing waste yarn for the heel, knit about an inch in pattern then pick up the heel stitches, this allows you to try on the sock periodically so you knit the right length foot.
