I am currently sorting out an issue that has made my pattern sales through Ravelry temporarily unavailable. If you would still like to purchase this pattern, you can find it on my ko-fi HERE. Thanks for your support!

Your new fave adventure sock!

These socks are knitted cuff-down with a shadow wrap short row heel and a wedge toe, including an optional modification that adds a reinforced panel to the back of the heel. This adds some extra thickness and durability to a spot that gets some significant wear, and also helps the heel and ankle fit more closely. Pattern is written for 9 inch circulars with notes added for magic loop.

Difficulty: Advanced beginner/intermediate. This pattern uses basic shaping (k2tog and ssk), short row heel, and kitchener stitch bind-off.

Sizing:
Pattern available in sizes 1 (2) 3 (4) to fit foot/ankle circumference of 8.5 (9) 9.5 (10) in or 22 (23) 24 (25) cm.

Please note that given measurements are for the “thickness” of the foot/ankle and do not correspond to length of the foot (shoe size.) Socks may be knit to the desired foot length for any of the listed sizes.

Materials:
Size 1 (2.25 mm) 9-in circulars (or other needle type for preferred sock construction)
Yarn: 100g (325-400yd/300-365 m) of heavy fingering-weight sock yarn.
Tapestry needle
Stitch markers

Yarn usage will vary by sock length/shoe size. For most typical shoe sizes, 100g of most typical sock yarns (325-400 yd or 300-365m) will be sufficient for a full pair of socks. If you are knitting a sock in size 3 or 4 for a foot length of 10.5 in/26 cm or longer, you may need to purchase an additional ball/skein of yarn.

Green sample (size 3) used 86g (286 yd/261 yd) of Patons Kroy Socks and is knitted for a foot circumference of 9.25 in.

Brown sample (size 3) used 60g (252 yd/231 m) of Retrosaria Rosa Pomar Mondim and is knitted for a foot circumference of 9.25 in.
