Materials:
Fingering/Size 1 yarn (Stroll Fingering in “Sprinkle Heather” pictured)
-approx. (210, 240, 310, 360, 420) yards total
Crochet hook in size 4mm or size needed to obtain gauge
Crochet hook in size 3.5mm (for optional edging)
(2) Stitch markers
Gauge: 17 sts x 22 rows in 3” using Single Crochet w/4mm hook (NOT the typical 4”)
Pattern Notes:
Pattern written using US terms.
The chain at the beginning of each round does NOT count as a stitch.
Even numbered rounds are ”Right Side”.
For the toe we are working in a spiral, for the foot and remainder we are joining and turning each round. Mark the first stitch of each round with a stitch marker.
These are intended to be ankle socks. However, if you wish to make them taller, once past the ankle rows simply continue the “leg” to make the socks as tall as you like.
