HUGO sneaker socks are knitted on a set of DPNs using three needles (+ working needle).
I like to change to a small circular needle in between (when I am knitting part of the leg or the foot in rounds only). This way the work will be more even and there will be no ‚ladders‘ in between one needle and the next.

The heel is knitted as half handkerchief heel with heel flap. It has airy big Polka Dots in a simple openwork pattern on the instep.

Stitch motiv is shown in charts and in written description.

Any nice sock yarn will be perfect to use. Up to size 38/39 you may even get two pairs of sneaker socklets out of one 100g skein.

A tutorial how to do the kitchener stitch to graft the toes closed with photos and written expalantions is included.
