- Know your feet: size, length and width, lumps and curves?
- Know the pattern: sizing, stockinette, lace, cables or ribbing? How stretchy?
- Know your gauge: tight or loose, optimal number of stitches for a fitting sock?
- Know the yarn: normal sock yarn, thicker or thinner? Different from the original pattern?
- Put all details together: how the sizing of the pattern fit your feet? What changes do you need to make? What size needles your need?
- Try the sock on continuously
- Do not be afraid to ravel.
- Wear it proudly!
Pattern: Sideways / Sivupolku by Anni Vartola
Yarn: Lang Yarn Lawoll Solid Superwash, 100% wool containing one ply of color matched reinforcement yarn. Bought in Berlin
Comments: An easy pattern with nice details in the back of the leg. Ribbing makes the socks stretchy and fitting.
