I love ribbed socks—they’re super comfortable and fit very well because of the elastic nature of ribbing. This pattern adds a bit of a twist to the typical ribbing used on socks, with its offbeat pattern of thick and thin ribs from top to bottom. To make this pattern suitable for confident beginners, this sock can be made without any picked-up stitches or toe grafting—if you can knit, purl, increase, and work in the
round, you can make these socks!
