A crochet border, worked in a contrasting color, changes a simple knitted sock into something special!
Ideal as a gift or to use up wooly leftovers.

Sock: LanaGrossa “Meilenweit”
Amount used: approx. 40 g / 1.4 oz

The socks are worked top-down. They have a French heel and a flat (standard) toe. Leg and foot length can be adapted individually by knitting fewer or more rounds.

The crochet pattern is charted. Chart keys in (American) US terms and (British) UK terms and there are some photos of the most important steps. The sock pattern is written.
