Knitted Knee Socks Pattern: Men's Light Socks
Knitted knee socks pattern Materials -
For tension.... Cast on 84 stitches, 28 on each of three needles. Work in rounds, in rib of K.2 and P.2, for 4 inches. Then knit plain until the sock measures 11 inches from the commencement. To divide the stitches for the heel, knit the first 21 stitches of the round on to one needle, slip the last 21 stitches of this round on to the other end of the same needle (these 42 stitches are for the heel). Dividing all the other stitches on to two needles, leave these for the instep of the knitted knee socks pattern. On the heel stitches (always slipping the first stitch), purl and knit a row alternately until 41 more rows are worked (the last will be a purl row). Turn the heel and knit up the stitches at the side in the same manner as given for Men's Striped Socks (but using only the one colour, of course). Knit 1 round without shaping. Then, in the next round, decrease for the instep as follows:- Knit to the last 4 stitches of the first need, K.2 together, K.2; knit the second needle without shaping; on the third needle, K.2, K.2 together through the back of the loops, knit to the end of the needle. Repeat the last 2 rounds until only 20 stitches remain on each of the first and third needles (if a narrow instep be required work the decreasing in every round.) Knit, without shaping, until (from the side of the heel where the stitches were knitted up) the foot measures:- 6.5 inches for a 10-inch foot. 7 inches for a 10.5 inch foot. 7.5 inches for an 11-inch foot. Then, if a flat toe be required, shape in the same manner as give for Mens Heavy Socks. For a rounded toe follow the shaping of the 'Men's Striped Socks
