Rosea Basic Socks are knit from the toe up. Stitches are cast on using Judy’s Magic Cast On, then worked in the round with increases to shape the toe. Once the desired number of stitches has been reached, continue working in the round until a few increases are made at the sides to accommodate the height of the foot. The heel is then worked using short rows. After the heel, a few decreases are made to improve the fit of the leg. The leg is then worked in ribbing to the desired length.
