3 sox 1 pattern
Adventurer.........3 sock pattern
This pattern will cover 3 styles of socks parts are interchangeable with each sock. I will give the basics so you can create you own custom made sock.
The 3 styles I have are:
* Ankle sock
* Crew sock
* Tube sock
We have also created a toe up version of the Basix Sox...with a twist
STEPPING STONES

to join your cuff hold the beginning ch edge behind next row to be worked
(remember your beg tail with me at the TOP of the cuff [I use this as my marker])
and work blsc pattern until you are at the end (8 blsc), chain 1
One the bottom edge of the cuff hdc into the cuff 58(62,68) times around.

Continue to FOOT
********************************
FOOT (all):
* ANKLE & CREW socks
After you complete your last row of the heel begin working in rounds (do not join at each beg stitch, but always remember to mark it)
continue working in rounds until your sock measures 2 inches shorter than the wearers foot.
Proceed to toe shaping.
*TUBE sock
keep working sc in rounds (no need to join each round) you now can decide how long you want to make your entire sock.
Common measurements are:
ankle- 14"
crew- 18"
calf- 24"
skip heel directions and proceed to toe shaping directions:
****************************************
TOE SHAPING
to shape the toe use the same directions as your heel.
This will create a short rowed cup style toe.
After you complete the increase rows turn the sock inside out and slip stitch the 2 sides together.
Or you may seam them together if this is your preference.
