The perfect toe up socks

A very detailed step-by-step recipe for basic toe-up socks that will fit perfectly - no matter the shape/size of your feet or the yarn you want to use. Featuring an invisible and well-rounded toe box and an adjustable heel (no picking up stitches!) **Included in the pattern:** * pdf with altogether 12 pages * very detailed step-by-step written instructions * tons of pictures and helpful tips * video knit-along available * video tutorials for all knitting techniques are available (on my blog) **Important:** The base pattern is available for free on my blog. Only if you want to support my work, want to help me cover the expenses for tech-editing and test-knitting, and want/need the instructions as a pdf, will you have to purchase the pattern. As an alternative, you can also opt to support me on my [patreon account][2]. All patrons get the pdf for free. **Difficulty: intermediate** These socks can be knit in the round using circular or double-pointed knitting needles. The focus of this pattern, or rather recipe, lies in providing you with the means to knit those perfect socks. As a result, it uses some a little bit more advanced stitches to combat common flaws of simpler patterns. You will have to do some *simple* calculations (literally just entering 3 numbers into your calculator). Since there is a video knit-along available and slow-motion step-by-step tutorials for all techniques, it should be nothing any passionate knitter can't handle. **Yarn and yardage:** The sample is knit with a solid 6-ply sheep wool sock yarn blend. For shoe sizes below 42 (EU) or ~10 (US) a 100-gram skein will typically be enough. As the instructions tell you exactly how to determine your cast-on requirements in case you are using a different yarn, you can finish these toe-up socks with any other yarn weight from light-fingering to DK. **Skills required:** knit, purl, KFB, SKL, KLL, KRL, mds, k2tog, SSK, p2tog, sl1, magic cast-on, stretchy bind-off **Materials:** * ~100 grams of yarn. * Circular needles or a set of 5 dpns * tapestry needle * scissors * 4 stitch markers
