MEASUREMENTS
To Fit Sizes
Small, Medium, Large
Finished Measurements
Socks measure 7 (8, 9)” 18 (20.5, 23) cm in circumference.
Sample shown is large size.
Designer Tip: The best way to choose the correct size is to measure the circumference around the ball of the foot. You want to choose the size closest to that measurement.
Gauge
32 sts and 34 rounds = 4” 10 cm in Stranded Stockinette St (two-color knitting).
28 sts and 42 rounds = 4” 10 cm in Stockinette St in one color.
Note: It is best to match your gauge to the two-color pattern gauge given. If your one-color gauge varies slightly from the gauge given here, that’s ok; just be sure to make a note of it, as you will need to know it later in order to customize the foot-length.
