EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN
HEEL DECREASES (worked in stocking stitch):
ROW 1 (= right side): Knit until there are 7 stitches left, slip 1 stitch knit-wise, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch, turn.
ROW 2 (= wrong side): Purl until there are 7 stitches left, slip 1 stitch purl-wise, purl 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the purled stitch, turn.
ROW 3 (= right side): Knit until there are 6 stitches left, slip 1 stitch knit-wise, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch, turn.
ROW 4 (= wrong side): Purl until there are 6 stitches left, slip 1 stitch purl-wise, purl 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the purled stitch, turn.
Continue to decrease like this, working until there is 1 stitch less each time before slipping a stitch and until there are 14-16-18 stitches left.
DECREASE TIP (for toe):
Begin 2 stitches before the marker, knit 2 together, marker sits here, knit 2 twisted together (2 stitches decreased).
Repeat at the second marker.
SOCKS - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE
The piece is worked from leg to toe in the round with double pointed needles.
While the heel is worked, the other stitches on top of the foot wait. When the heel is finished the heel decreases are worked. Stitches are knitted up on each side of the heel and the foot is continued in the round while decreasing on each side. When the foot is the correct length, the toe is worked.
SOCK
Cast on 68-72-76 stitches with double pointed needles size 2.5 mm and DROPS Fabel.
Work rib in the round (purl 2, knit 2) for 4-5-6 cm.
Change to double pointed needles size 3 mm. Continue rib across the first 26-26-30 stitches and stocking stitch across the other stitches. AT THE SAME TIME, decrease 8-8-6 stitches evenly across the knitted stitches on the first round = 60-64-70 stitches.
When the leg measures 7-7-7 cm, decrease before and after the ribbed stitches as follows: Start 2 stitches before the ribbed stitches, knit 2 together, continue rib across the 26-26-30 stitches, slip 1 stitch knit-wise, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch. Decrease like this every 1 cm a total of 5-5-6 times = 50-54-58 stitches. Remember to maintain the knitting tension!
Continue rib and stocking stitch until the leg measures 14-15-16 cm from the cast-on edge.
HEEL AND FOOT
Keep the first 26-26-30 stitches on the needle for the heel, place the next 24-28-28 stitches on a stitch holder (top of foot). Continue stocking stitch back and forth across the heel-stitches for 6-6-6½ cm.
Insert 1 marker in the middle of the heel-stitches; the foot is measured from here.
Now work HEEL DECREASES – read explanation above!
After the heel decreases, knit up 15-16-17 stitches on each side of the heel and place the stitches from the stitch holder back on the needles = 68-74-80 stitches. Insert 1 marker-thread on each side of the 24-28-28 stitches on top of the foot. Work stocking stitch in the round and decrease each side as follows: Knit together the last 2 stitches before the first marker and knit twisted together the first 2 stitches after the second marker (twisted knit means knitting through the loop that lies on the back of the needle). Decrease like this every 2nd round a total of 11-12-13 times = 46-50-54 stitches.
TOE
Work until the foot measures 18-19-21½ cm from the marker on the heel. There is approx. 4-5-5 cm left. Insert 1 marker each side of the sock, with 23-25-27 stitches on top of and underneath the foot. Now decrease for the toe on each side of both markers - read DECREASE TIP (4 decreased stitches). Decrease like this every 2nd round a total of 6-6-7 times, then every round 3-4-4 times = 10-10-10 stitches. Cut the strand, thread it through the remaining stitches, tighten and fasten well. The foot measures approx. 22-24-26½ cm from the marker on the heel, measured under the foot.
