This is not a pattern, only a chart with few notes to use it with your favorite socks recipe.

The pdf contain help for beginners in French, I resume it here in English

You can use the chart for socks and mitts ^^

It’s a a multiple of 10 stitches .

Green X = one stitch in green
red N = one bobble in red ( instruction for the bobbles below)

So, according to your usual favorite socks recipe , you need to increase 2 rounds before the chart :
56 : 4 extra st
64 : 6 extra st
72 : 8 extra st

And decrease 2 rounds after complete the chart.
For 72 stitches : you increase enough to avoid needle change ^^
For 64 : depending of tension, you can try to keep your main needle size… it’s work for me but not for all people.

For nice round bobbles :
“N” red in the chart : with the red yarn : kfbf , turn your work, 3 purl, turn your work again, knit 3 together through the back loop

In the next round, (all in white) : knit the bobbles stitch through the back loop

Happy knitting ! ^^
