Now, I’ve asked my Mom for my Dad’s foot measurements three times in the past year. I think she’ll scream if I ask her for them again. I have written them down before and put them in a “safe place” and promptly lost them. Darn house elves! Hopefully this is a “safe place” to save my pattern.

Dad’s fit well socks sized to fit a foot with a 8.5″ foot circumference. The cuff is 10″ long. I have enough yarn left over to have knit the cuff 1″ longer. Please let me know if I’ve made a mistake re-writing my pattern, or if there is something you don’t understand.

Materials:

1 hank of Dream in color smooshy

3.00mm (US 2.5) double pointed needles (I used knitpicks. Be sure to check the mm size. As they have several US 2 sizes)

darning needle

gauge- 7sts/inch
