Dotted Ladder Socks are knitted top down and feature a 2-color slipped stitch pattern, worked with only one color at a time. The reason for this pair of socks was to try out an integrated heel method. Ideal for knitting both socks on one circular needle, at the same time. The resulting integrated heel looks like the regular heel flap and gusset construction, but is accomplished without picking up any heel flap stitches. This heel construction is surprisingly easy and will soon become the go-to method for all knitters wanting to knit 2 socks at the same time.

For the best size selection, measure your foot circumference around the widest part of your foot.

To use scarp sock yarn for the coordinating color, make sure you have at least 25 grams available.
