This pattern includes instructions for both a toe-up (pg. 3-4) and top-down (pg. 4-5) fingering weight sock with a Shadow Wrap Heel. This sock is sized for the whole family, child through large adult. It is worked using magic loop; needle 1 will be front of foot/instep/leg, and needle 2 will be back of the foot/leg and heel. *(If you have larger calves and are knitting tall socks [crew, not shorties], go up a needle size for the cuff, noted below on both versions.)
This pattern is meant to be a starting point for your sock knitting. You can knit this pattern all in one color (no CC), but you will need to adjust the yardage requirements. Feel free to make a shortie pair or taller socks, whatever you want. You can also add in a stitch pattern or ribbing; the possibilities are endless. *(It is a good idea to weigh your starting yarn before your first sock, only use half per sock. Then, weigh as you go to make sure you will have enough for your chosen size/length.)
Sizes: 1 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) = 48 (52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80) sts around.
Actual sock circumference: 6 (6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10)”
