This is a simple sock in stockinette, with an extra strong heel and toe section.

The sock is worked in the round, except for the heel, which is worked in short rows.

Each fingering sock yarn between 405-410 meters/50 grams is okay.

I used 2,5 mm needles. You might choose the 2,25 mm.

The pattern is easy to adjust:
just add rounds to make a longer leg or leave rounds out for a shorter leg. Just add rounds to make a longer foot or leave rounds out for a shorter foot.
