Pattern, Knit in the Round, Magic Loop Method:

CO 44 STS, PM, split 22 STS on each needle, join in the round

Rounds 1-25 : *K1, P1*

 

Knit all remaining rounds until desired length {mine measures 14″ from the beginning}, minus 4 rounds for the toe.

 

Decrease for the Toe:

Round 1: *K2TOG TBL, K16, K2TOG*

Round 2: *K2TOG TBL, K14, K2TOG*

Round 3: *K2TOG TBL, K12, K2TOG*

Round 4: *K2TOG TBL, K10, K2TOG*

BO in all knit stitches and seam the toe closed.

OR

Use the kitchener stitch to seam the toe closed.

Weave in the ends.

No blocking necessary.

 

Size Alterations:

CO on in increments of 2 to make it wider or narrower.

 

Side Note:

I found that when wearing them, they’re more comfortable to wear inside out. The cuff is the same either way. :)

These are meant to be oversized, but when I realized I could wear them with my Sperry boots, I wanted a pair that fit a little more snug, so for my next pair I’m going to CO 40 STS.
