Rockmill Socks feature easy, allover knit-purl textures that create a classic look. Choose from 6 stitch pattern variations so you can knit a texture stripe sequence that feels just right. These socks are knit from the cuff down with a traditional heel flap and gusset, with five sizes offered to make sure you can find your perfect fit.

This pattern assumes knowledge of working in the round and basic sock construction. Both charts and written directions are provided for all six stitch patterns. See last photo for included stitch pattern options.

As this sock is knit cuff down, sizing is based on the circumference of your lower leg where the top edge of your sock would sit. This pattern is easily adjusted to accommodate a narrower or wider foot during the gusset shaping.
