Crocodile Roll is available in both top down and toe up versions. It is a textured sock and uses mock cables along the edges. Worked in sport weight, these socks knit up fast and are delightfully squishy! This pattern is available in 3 sizes and uses a short row heel. I recommend using the Fish Lips Kiss Heel, but I have provided alternative instructions too.
