This toe-up ankle sock pattern is the perfect everyday sock! Knit from the toe up, these socks are simple, fast, and easy to customize. The design is plain enough to show off self-striping yarns like Premier Yarns Fruits (affiliate link), but works beautifully with tonals and solids too.

Toe-up socks are great for:

Trying on as you knit

Using every last yard of yarn

Adjusting cuff length easily

Beginner-friendly sock knitting

Techniques used: Judy’s Magic Cast On, M1R/M1L, KFB, PFB, SSK, K2TOG.

These socks are the toe-up version of my popular Vanilla Ankle Socks, created after many requests from knitters who wanted a toe-up option.
