The Anchor Socks are knitted top down in the round. You start by knitting the cuff and end with the toe. The leg features the anchor motif in a contrast color. The socks also feature a reinforced heel flap in the contrast color, but of course you can substitute your favorite heel construction. The toe is also knitted in the contrast color.

The pattern features 3 different sizes: S (M) L that roughly correspond to shoe sizes US 6 – 6 ½ (7- 7 ½) 9 ½ - 10 or German sizes 37/38 (39/40) 42/43.

You’ll need two balls of Drops Nord in your chosen main color and one ball Drops Nord in your chosen contrast color. This will be enough even for the biggest size given in the pattern.
