Simple Socks No 1
Learn to knit a classic pair of socks with this pattern and companion video tutorial. The socks feature a simple k1p1 rib cuff, Stockinette body, and a basic heel flap, gusset, and round heel construction finishing with a wedge toe and a bit of grafting (leg and foot length are completely customizable!).
The accompanying video tutorial walks through each of these steps in detail.
