These socks, knit from the toe-up with a traditional gusset and heel flap, are knit from a fingering weight yarn. The ribbed pattern, with its wrapped stitches that zig and zag across the rib add textured interest.

The pattern is offered in two sizes, Women‟s Medium and Men‟s Large. The use of the ribbed pattern also adds flexibility to the fit.

Techniques used include Judy Becker‟s Magic Cast On, Cat Bordhi‟s LaLink and LaRink increases, a traditional gusset and heel flap and a stretchy bind off for the cuff.

Recommended for adventurous beginners.
