JACK SOCKS

CONSTRUCTION: The Jack Socks are knitted from the top down. After the cuff, the leg is worked in pattern. This is followed by the reinforced heel flap and the heel turn. Then the gusset is knitted before the pattern is continued over the entire foot to the toe. The toe is shaped with decreases and then closed with kitchener stitch.

SIZE GUIDE: The pattern covers shoe sizes from 16/17 to 44/45 EU. Jacksockskids_ includes sizes 16/17–34/35 EU, Jacksocks_ includes sizes 36/37–44/45 EU. Choose the size according to the shoe size of the person you are knitting the socks for. If you want the socks to fit a bit looser, it is recommended to choose the next larger size.
