CUFF
Using the long tail method, US 1/2.25mm needle, and your yarn, CO 64 sts. Join for working

Gracelyn - Socks | No. 2504-243-6341 | © Hobbii 2024 | 3
Row 1 (RS): *Sl1 purlwise with yarn in back, K1; repeat across row. 32 sts
Row 2 (WS): Sl1 purlwise with yarn in front, Purl across remaining row.
Repeat rows 1 & 2 a total of 16 times. The last two rows above count as one repeat. You will
end with a total of 32 rows or 16 repeats.
HEEL TURN
Row 1 (RS): Sl1 purlwise with yarn in back, K 16, ssk, k1, turn.
Row 2 (WS): Sl1 purlwise with yarn in front, p3, p2tog, p1, turn.
Row 3: Sl1 purlwise with yarn in back, knit to 1 stitch before gap, ssk, k1, turn.
Row 4: Sl1 purlwise with yarn in front, Purl to 1 stitch before gap, p2tog, p1, turn.
Repeat rows 3 & 4 until all stitches on the heel have been worked. You will end after your
last WS row and have 18 sts left on the needle.
GUSSET
Knit across the row.
Using the same needle, pick up 16 sts along the side of the heel flap. Pick up 1 extra stitch in
corner.
Knit across the instep sts.
Pick up 1 extra stitch in the corner, then pick up 16 sts along the other side of the heel flap,
knit the next 9 sts from the first needle.
You are now at the BOR.
GUSSET DECREASE
Round 1: Knit
Round 2: K to 3 sts before the instep begins, k2tog, k1. Knit across instep sts. K1, ssk, knit to
end of round.
Repeat these two rounds until you have the original 64 sts.
FOOT
Once you are back to your original stitch count of 64, continue working the foot, knitting all
stitches, until the length measures 4 - 5 cm / 1.5” - 2” shorter than your desired foot length.
Hint: Measure your foot from the back of the heel to the tip of your longest toe.
Example: I begin shaping for the toe once my work measured 19 cm / 7.5” from the back of
the heel on the sock. (My foot measures about 24 cm / 9.5” and I wear a US size 8 / EU size
39 shoe)
Your toe takes approximately 4 - 5 cm / 1.5 – 2” of your foot length.
TOE
Instructions for a basic rounded toe are below. This is my favourite, but feel free to
substitute your favourite.
Round 1: Knit all stitches.
Round 2: K to 3 sts before instep, K2tog, k1.
K1, ssk, knit across instep sts until you have 3 sts remaining, k2tog, k1.

K1, ssk, k until end of round.
Repeat the last 2 rounds a total of 8 times. Repeat round two 4 more times, until 16 sts
remain.
Reposition stitches so you have 8 stitches on two needles.
FINISHING
Use Kitchener Stitch to graft the toe closed.
Weave in all ends and repeat the pattern for the second sock.
When finished, wet block your socks on a sock blocker, if desired. This helps the delicate
lace pattern to relax beautifully.
Happy Knitting!
