The socks are knitted toe up, the gusset increases are made at the sole of the foot, then the heel is shaped with short rows and decreases, after that the cuffs are knitted and finished with a picot edge that’s sewn to the WS.

The colorwork pattern has floats of only three stitches at most, making it beginner friendly and easy to remember.

Choose the size based on the finished sock’s width since the length of the sole is easy to adjust.

I made the socks in size 2 and my feet are the size of EU 39 / UK 6 / US 8 :)
