Needles & yarn
US 4 - 3.5 mm
6 stitches and 8 rows = 1 inch
Notes

Used misc. unlabeled DK weight stash yarn to make a nice pair of ‘neutral’ toned striped socks.

  1. Judy’s magic cast-on 12 st on each needle
  2. irregular to increases for custom shaping (my sweetie has very slanted toes!)
  3. final width 48 st.
  4. Pattern stitch for K2, P1 diagonal rib as follows: (K2, P1) rep for 2 rounds, K one round plain, P1, (K2, P1), K2 - rep for 2 rounds, K one round plain, K1, (P1, K2), P1 K1 - K one round plain.

Change colors on the plain round.
Work foot length/gusset/heel as in David’s Pattern
End with 1.5” 1x1 ribbing in contrasting color (red for right foot and yellow for left foot :). These were done so fast that he wore them off to work before I could take a picture! Guess I’ll do that when I wash them next…
