Description
Sizes
Str 1 (2) 3 (4)
Goal
Circumference of the shaft lying flat/extended approx: 13/20 (15/23) 17/26 (19/29) cm
The size should be determined by the width of the shaft rather than shoe size, as the sock is knitted to the length that fits the foot, with the number of cast-on stitches determining the width of the sock. The pattern provides guideline measurements that you can use for shoe sizes
Knitting tension
25 sts = 10 cm in stockinette stitch on needle 3
Guiding sticks
3.0 mm double pointed needles (or 80 cm circular needle for magic loop)
Materials
Sock yarn, typically 210 - 220 meters per 50 grams. Recommended yarns are Merida from Lamana, Arwetta from Filcolana, Jawoll from Lang Yarns or hand-dyed Sock
50 (50) 75 (100) grams for a pair of socks
Yarn consumption is indicative as it ultimately depends on the desired foot length.
