Briochevron Socks

Choose two colours of fingering-weight sock yarn to knit these top-down socks. The cuff begins with 1x1 ribbing followed by two-colour brioche chevrons flowing along the front leg and onto the top of the foot. The back leg and heel flap are knitted in garter stitch, followed by stockinette stripes along the sole of the foot. You can easily customise the length of the leg and foot to fit your size with the short chevron pattern repeat. Select your circumference with five sizes to choose from and cast on these brioche socks!

6 (7.5, 9, 10, 11.5)″ / 15 (19, 23, 25, 29)cm leg and foot circumference. Measurements taken after blocking.
Size 3 shown on a size US 13 / EU 47 size foot that has a 10.5″ / 27cm foot circumference. The sock fits with 1.5″ / 4cm of negative ease.

Socks are designed to fit an actual foot circumference of 7 (8.5, 10, 11, 12.5)″ / 18 (22, 25, 28, 32)cm. The socks are designed to fit with negative ease. Choose a size with a finished foot circumference measurement that is approximately 1″ / 2.5cm or 1.5″ / 4cm smaller than your actual foot circumference, so that the sock will fit nice and snug on your foot.

The lengths of the cuff, leg, and foot are easily customisable by knitting more pattern repeats for a longer leg or foot, or fewer pattern repeats for a shorter leg or foot.
