This guide provides a detailed, step-by-step explanation of how to knit a pair of socks suitable for sizes 30 to 43, with an adjustable length. The socks are knitted one at a time, starting from the cuff and working in the round. The pattern includes diagrams to aid your understanding.

The techniques used in this pattern include:

• Casting on: This is the first step in knitting where you create the initial stitches on the needle.
• Stitching: This involves creating a series of loops that form the fabric of the socks.
• Knitting 1 on 1: This refers to a type of ribbing where you alternate between one knit stitch and one purl stitch.
• Purl stitches: These are basic stitches that are the opposite of knit stitches.
• Decreasing stitches on the right and left: This technique is used to shape the fabric by reducing the number of stitches.
• Lifting stitches from edge stitches: This is a method of picking up stitches from the edge of the fabric.
• Heel wedge with a “heel flap”: This is a technique used to create a comfortable and well-fitting heel for the sock.
• Stocking stitch: This is a basic knitting stitch that creates a smooth, flexible fabric.

The pattern requires only one skein of yarn. The recommended needles for this pattern are circular needles with a long cable (80-100 cm) and a diameter of 2.00 – 2.25 mm.

To maintain the appearance of the socks and prevent shrinkage, it is recommended to use sock blockers after washing. These tools help the socks retain their shape and size during the drying process.
