The Asa Socks are a classic top-down sock pattern with tiny cable details that add just the right amount of texture without making the pattern overly complicated.

These socks begin with a simple ribbed cuff and are worked from the top down with a traditional heel flap, heel turn, gusset, and Kitchener-stitched toe. Small cables run along the sock for a subtle textured detail while the rest of the design keeps that familiar, comfortable sock construction.

The pattern includes a wide range of sizes from baby through large adult, making it easy to knit a pair for nearly anyone in the family. Foot length is also adjustable so you can customize the fit.

The sample is knit with KnitPicks Stroll Tweed fingering-weight yarn and US 1 (2.25 mm) needles at a gauge of 8 stitches and 11 rounds per inch.

Sizes: Baby (Toddler, Child) Large Child, Adult Small (Medium, Large)
