FAQs

Q I’ve never knit socks but have knit lace and cables before… can I use this pattern?

A Yes – all the rock+purl sock patterns are well explained for anyone to pick them up, and your knowledge of lace and cables will make up for your lack of knowledge on sock anatomy.

Q Why is the pattern SO long?

A Due to the length of the pattern (32 rows) I’ve created 2 points to start the toe shaping. With 3 sizes, that makes 6 different toe combinations. The first 5 pages apply to ALL sizes, then only 1 of the final 6 pages will apply to your size.
