SOCKS - SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE
Worked in the round on double pointed needles from leg down to toe.
LEG
Cast on 56-60-64 stitches on double pointed needles size 2.5 mm with DROPS Fiesta.
Work rib in the round (= knit 2/purl 2) for 4-5-5 cm.
Continue with stocking stitch and double pointed needles size 3 mm, AT THE SAME TIME on 1st round decrease 4-4-2 stitches evenly = 52-56-62 stitches. Insert a marker at the beginning of round = mid back.
Continue in stocking stitch. When piece measures 5-6-7 cm, begin decrease mid back – read DECREASE TIP in explanation above. Remember to follow the knitting tension!
Decrease 2 stitches mid back every 5½-5½-3 cm 3-3-5 times in total = 46-50-52 stitches.
Work until piece measures 18-20-22 cm.
Now work heel and foot as explained below.
HEEL AND FOOT
Work over the first 11-12-13 stitches and keep stitches on needle for heel, work the next 24-26-26 stitches and slip them on a thread (mid on top of foot), and work the last 11-12-13 stitches on needle for heel = 22-24-26 heel stitches on needle.
Work in stocking stitch back and forth over heel stitches for 6-6-6½ cm. Insert 1 marker in the middle of last row - measure piece from this marker later.
Work in HEEL DECREASE - read explanation above.
After heel decrease work next round as follows:
Work in stocking stitch over the 12-12-14 heel stitches, pick up 13-13-14 stitches along the side of heel, work in stocking stitch over the 24-26-26 stitches from thread on top of foot, and pick up 13-13-14 stitches along the other side of heel = 62-64-68 stitches. Work until mid under heel – round now begins here.
Insert 1 marker on each side of the 24-26-26 stitches on top of foot.
Work in stocking stitch and decrease in each side as follows: Knit the last 2 stitches before first marker on top of foot together and knit the first 2 stitches after last marker on top of foot twisted together. Decrease like this on every round 4-3-3 times in total, and then on every other round 8-8-8 times in total = 38-42-46 stitches.
Work until piece measures 18-20-21 cm from marker on heel – measured under foot.
4-4-5 cm remain until finished measurements, try the sock on for desired length before decreasing for toes as explained below.
TOE
Insert 1 marker in each side of sock so that there are 18-20-22 stitches on top of foot and 20-22-24 stitches under foot. Work in stocking stitch. AT THE SAME TIME on first round decrease for toes on each side of both markers – remember DECREASE TIP (= 4 stitches decreased). Decrease like this on every other round 4-4-5 times in total and then on every round 3-4-4 times in total = 10-10-10 stitches remain. Cut the yarn and pull yarn through stitches, tighten together and fasten. The sock measures approx. 22-24-26 cm from marker on heel – measured under foot.
