Pattern Notes
These knee-length socks are worked from the top down, commencing with a patterned cuff that folds over a ribbed band immediately below the knee. The legs are shaped over the calf and around the ankle. They are worked in colourwork throughout. 5 size options are provided in the pattern, based on calf and ankle dimensions.
