Socks are worked toe-up with an afterthought heel. After shaping the toe, the entire sock is worked as a tube, inserting a row of waste yarn to mark where the heel will be. Once the sock is complete, the waste yarn is removed, and the heel stitches are picked up and worked in decreasing rounds to shape the heel.

To adjust the leg length, simply adjust the number of MC rounds worked between/after the floral motif sections.

When binding off for the cuff, be sure to do so loosely or use a technique that will create ample stretch to pull the cuff over the foot.

Instructions are written for dpns, but feel free to adapt to two circulars or magic loop.
