Description
If you have ever wanted to make socks from the toe up AND the cuff down using the same pattern, Port Socks can help with that. Making the same sock using both methods brings a different kind of understanding of the differences of these 2 techniques.
The instructions for these socks includes both cuff down and toe up instructions. Try one of each or choose your favorite method.
The directions are both written and charted.
