PATTERN NOTES

Sizing: Cables, ribbing and a fitted arch make this one- size sock quite stretchy and suitable for a range of foot circumferences. However, to accommodate a particularly narrow or wide foot, adjust your gauge up or down by
changing needles, yarn or both.
Unless otherwise indicated, slip all stitches purlwise.
All charts are worked in the round – always read from right
to left.
The charts in this pattern have been color coded by
character as a request from the test and sample knitters.
Charts D (front leg/instep) & E (back leg) are optional composite charts which may be used in place of Charts A, B & C. These will be of most use to KnitCompanion users.
