Beautiful Socks are elegant unisex socks worked cuff-down in the round. A simple textured pattern is worked along the leg and continues across the instep, while the sole is worked in smooth stockinette stitch for a comfortable fit.
The construction features a reinforced heel flap, a classic heel turn, gusset decreases, and a rounded toe shaped with symmetrical decreases. The remaining stitches are grafted seamlessly.

Skill level:
Intermediate. The pattern is suitable for knitters who are comfortable working in the round, picking up stitches, and working decreases.
