This pattern/chart will turn your favourite socks into real and proper Graduation Socks. The chart is added to the finished sock using duplicate stitching. For your own safety, these socks cannot be started during the writing of the thesis; they are intended to be knit between the date of submission and the date of your graduation---no exceptions!

There is no sock pattern included here since we figured everyone has their favourite method anyway, although we will give a few pointers to simple, free sock patterns.
