Knitty Socks. Repeat these last two rows until all the stitches have been worked. The right side will be facing. Knit 1 row on all stitches. For the mathematically inclined, the number of stitches you have now is x/6+2, rounded up to an even number. On your 48-stitch sock, that's 10. On the 32-stitch sock, that's 8. 5. If you put half of your stitches on a holder in step 3, return them to a needle. Knit the stitches that remain on the heel. Using a new needle, pick up the required number of stitches along the first side, using the loops created by the slipping in step 2. Using another new needle, knit across the instep (non-heel) stitches. Using one more new needle, pick up the required number of stitches across the other side, using the loops created by the slipping in step 2. You will now have a small number of stitches left on your needle, ready to be worked. 6.

Silver's Sock Class. These patterns are sized for the average adult foot, male or female, and will fit a very wide range of feet. Later in the patterns, you will be instructed to measure the length of the intended foot. This is where you will customize the length of the sock for a perfect fit. Socks stretch nicely, and thus unless you have exceptionally sized feet, fit should not be an issue... with the following exceptions: - If your foot is very narrow or small, you should knit on a needle size or two smaller for a tighter fit around your foot. Optional: Use a K1 P1 ribbing for tighter elasticity. - If your legs/ankles are large, cast on using a larger needle for more elasticity around the cuff. Switch back to the recommended size after the first round. Please remember, these are not knitting patterns.
