Tahti Socks are knitted from the cuff down. The pattern is designed for the Magic Loop technique, but it is also suitable for knitting with double pointed needles. The heel features a French heel flap and gusset. The leg has a rhythmic stitch pattern framed by two lateral braids, also known as Vikkel Braid or Estonian Braid. The final touch is the anatomical toe, which ensures a great fit for the socks.
