The Crayon Socks are easy socks featuring the simplest heel construction - perfect for your first sock project! With a simple form, they are a great canvas for mixing colors - you can knit them all in one color, in two colors, or even make cuff, heel and toes all in different colors!

Sizes
1 (2, 3) corresponds to sock circumferences: 17.5 (20, 22.5) cm / approx. 7 (8, 9)“.

Choose a size that is 1 - 2.5 cm (0.5 - 1”) smaller than your foot circumference (measured before the toes). Foot length is adjustable - for good fit, knit a sock approx. 1 cm (0.5”) shorter than your actual foot length.
