I’m So Basic Socks

Materials:

One skein of sock yarn (approximately 400 yards, though you will not use the entire skein!)
One mini skein or scrap ball of sock yarn (approximately 50 yards) for the contrasting cuff, heels, and toes
AUS size 1 40” circular needle
A tapestry needle for weaving in ends
Sock blockers and wool wash for blocking (OPTIONAL)
GAUGE
40 sts over 4”/10cm of stockinette stitch, knit in the round and blocked

The basic sock is the work of the structural knitting genius. It seems a lot more complicated than it actually is, and once you understand the structure, you find yourself knitting more pairs than you know what to do!
