These socks are a quick and easy project. They are knit toe-up, and incorporate an afterthought heel, which is surprisingly simple and creates the perfectly shaped heel! Perfect for first-time sock knitters and pro knitters as well.
The pattern is available for free on my web site: www.soknits.com.
