intermediate knitter
This pattern is meant as a very detailed tutorial that shows you how to knit socks toe-up that fit perfectly - no matter your size or the shape of your feet. As such, there are some more advanced stitches involved and you will have to do some simple (!!!) calculations along the way. In that manner, you will be able to fix a lot of common problems and issues you will face when knitting standard patterns.
Since there is a video knit-along available and slow-motion tutorials for all techniques, any passionate knitter should be able to finish this pattern.
+++Yarn and yardage:+++
Any sock quality yarn from light fingering yarn to DK weight yarn (yarn for needle size 2.00 - 3.00 mm). I used around 250 meters of the Schachenmayr Regia 6-ply yarn for the sample socks. A 100-gram skein will typically be enough for mid-calf-high socks
and shoe sizes below 42 (EU) or ~10 (US).
+++Skills required:+++
knit, purl, kfb, skl, kll, krl, mds, k2tog, ssk, p2tog, sl1, magic cast-on, stretchy bind-off
Step-by-step video tutorials are available for all techniques.
+++Additional materials:+++
Stitch markers, blocking boards (optional), tapestry needle & scissors.
