NOTES
Socks are worked from the top down from the Cuff. The Cuff is worked in short rows and seamed together. The Leg, Foot and Toe are all worked in rounds. The Heel is worked in rows over half of the stitches from the Leg. This is joined back into the round for the Foot section. Ch-2 sps in pattern are counted as one stitch in the stitch count.
