GETTING STARTED
This pattern is easily adaptable for
DPNs, Magic Loop or 2 circulars so
you can use your favourite knitting
method. For the perfect fit, measure
around the widest part of your foot
for the circumference and choose
the size slightly smaller than your
measurement (for instance, if your foot
is 7.5” around, knit the 7” size). Then
measure the bottom of your foot, from
heel to longest toe to determine the
foot length.
This pattern uses Chroma Twist
Fingering. Each ply has been dyed in
the same colourway and then carefully
spun together for maximum contrast
and a unique hand-spun look. This
means your socks will be fraternal
twins; if you prefer your socks to be
more matching, you can use a solid
contrast colour to stripe throughout
the body and foot of the sock by
switching colours every 2 rows.
