Notes
This fabric has less stretch than Stockinette, and for comfort, the socks need to be a little larger than for plain fabric.

For the foot section, make sure to carry the contrasting color along with the main color in the sole of the sock, and trap/catch the floats every second stitch. To do this, place the nonworking yarn over the right needle’s tip, then knit the next stitch. The nonworking yarn can be moved back down so that when the next stitch is knit, it catches the nonworking yarn.
