Description
ABOUT THE PATTERN
The Olivia Socks are worked toes-up on circular needles using the magic loop method. First work the toe, then the foot, then heel, then the leg and finally the folded hem.
Start your work using the Turkish cast-on method, then continue to work the foot in the round in stockinette stitch. Then use the German Short Rows technique to work the heel. Work the leg in stockinette stitch in the round ending with a folded hem.
