Love the fit of a heel flap and gusset but also the convenience of toe-up socks? Hate picking up wraps? You can have it all; these toe-up socks feature a ribbed heel flap without the trouble of picking up stitches or wraps. The easy rib pattern is great for hugging your feet in all the right places: simple but functional.

This pattern download includes two pdf files -- the original version which has ribbing over the instep of the sock and up the leg and a “half-rib” version which begins the ribbing at the ankle.
