This is written sized to my own feet -- Ladies size 10 with a high instep, average width. I got tired of hunting around looking for notes written on odd scraps of paper every time I wanted to make something similar. I thought I’d share it with everyone, modifications can easily be made to customize it to your own feet.

This uses a simple 2X2 rib. Every now and then you need a pattern that you don’t have to think about -- when you’re with friends, online in a Zoom meeting, watching TV -- anywhere you don’t want to have to pay particular attention to the construction. It would be easy to make substitutions to the stitch pattern since there are many 4 stitch patterns available in many stitch dictionaries, or even work it in stockinette.

The simple construction works well with very busy yarns.

It hasn’t been tech edited, so PM me if you find any goofs!

ERRATA! pcoan found a boo-boo, thanks for the PM. Row 4 of the heel turn should have a P1 after the P2tog. Upload the new file, all fixed!
