Learn more about the collection
Basic top-down socks featuring an innovative short-row heel that’s simple to knit and fits beautifully! Whether you want to knit fine-gauge dress socks for your tallest friend, or sturdy slippers for a toddler, this multi-gauge and extensively sized pattern has you covered.
- Works with multiple yarn weights
- For babies to adult x-large. EU sizes 18–49.

The heel combines a deeper than usual short row heel with traditional gusset shaping, for a comfortable fit around the heel – even for high insteps! The beginner friendly heel is easy to work with minimal counting, and the accompanying video tutorial will walk you through each step. The heel is perfect for adding a pop of contrast colour, and detailed instructions are included for a smooth transition if you choose to switch colours. Enjoy playing with your stash and using up scraps with colour blocking, stripes, or marling on a simple canvas.
