PATTERN NOTES
- The pattern is written using magic loop method; hence, the basic understanding of the magic loop method is required to understand the pattern. Victoria Socks can also be adopted to use dpn. However, I would highly recommend using magic loop method because the nature of the motif.
- Everyone’s foot length is unique; hence, measure your foot length before working on the socks.
- Victoria Socks is worked from toe-up; the cast on method that I used is the magic cast-on method by Judy Becker. I have included the cast on instruction below.
- The heel of the sock is work using short row.
The pattern includes basic instruction on Magic Loop method, graphic instruction of magic cast on by Judy Becker, short-row heel and detail chart for the Twist and Lace Stitch.
As always if there is any question of the pattern, Please feel free to contact me.
