BESSER Sock is a thick sock worked cuff down in Double Broken Rib. It’s a good beginner sock, and looks awesome in hand-dyed yarn. They are great as house socks or in boots for the colder months.

SIZES

1 (2) 3 (4)

Ankle circumference:

1 - 17 cm

Measure the smallest part of your ankle. The sock is meant to have a negative ease of 2-4 cm. So if your ankle is 20 cm, you should knit size 1 with a 17 cm circumference. If you are between sizes, then pick the smaller of the two.
The length is worked to fit your foot.
