This pattern includes instructions for both a toe-up (pg. 3-4) and top-down (pg. 5-6) fingering weight sock with a Shadow Wrap Heel. 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.
There are 2 different charts, one for each sock (to make a symmetrical pair of socks). Feel free to work from only one chart if you prefer the socks to look identical. If you prefer to work from written instructions as opposed to a chart, work from the written instructions from either chart when pattern states to work from chart. If knitting with one color, just ignore when you are told to change to CC or MC.
I designed these socks to be a fun and relaxing knit, like sitting in your book nook reading a book. Enjoy your pair of Book Nook socks, they are quite addictive.
