The cuff is worked in Half-Twisted Rib in the round. Then, you work flat, beginning with two triangles and then two squares, all worked in Garter Stitch. After the leg is finished, you work a shadow-wrap Stockinette Stitch heel before setting up for the foot and continuing as established for the leg. Finally, you begin working in the round again and work the toe in Stockinette Stitch.
