Pattern Format
Pattern Format
The Ribbed Sock is an interactive, made-to-measure pattern that calculates the number of stitches, rows, and yardage for a pattern.
The benefit of this type of pattern is that it makes your pattern size inclusive to virtually any body size (theoretically, it should even work for an infant!) and it allows you to use any yarn and any gauge! This is done by allowing the user to type in their body’s measurements and gauge onto the pattern. Then, in the background, the pattern will calculate all the math within the pattern to fit the person perfectly.
It is recommended that the pattern is accessed through Adobe Reader.

Knitting Needles
Knitting Needles
You can use any size needles for this pattern. I recommend using a needle size that creates a nice fabric with the sock yarn you’ve chosen to work with. Once you determine your main needle size, you will also need one set of needles a size smaller for working the cuff.
In terms of types of needles, you can use:
- 9” circular needles*
- double pointed needles (DPNs)
- 36”+ circular needles to use with the magic loop method
*Please note that if you use 9” circular needles, you will also need to use either DPNs or 36”+ circular needles as we decrease for the toe.
