Chiana is a cuff-down sock with a fleegle heel, inspired by my favourite character from the sci-fi show Farscape. Like its namesake, Chiana is complex and challenging; full of twists, turns and angles. There are traveling stitches on every round and all charted knit stitches are twisted (knit through the back loop). Chiana is a monochromatic gal and so these socks are grey.

Adjustable sizing. Cast on is for a 74 st sock, however size adjustments can be made by using a smaller needle and/or eliminating chart edge stitches, down to a 68 st sock. The ribbing and crossed stitches pull in, making the sock snug on several sizes of feet. More info in pattern.

This pattern has not been test knit. If you discover any errors or have suggestions please contact me by Ravelry message. I would be grateful to hear from you.
