Sizing Notes
This sock ruler is extremely helpful for crocheting socks in any size.
This pattern is written for sizes small(medium, large) and are designed to fit a 7(8, 9) inch foot circumference. Note that crochet fabric is more dense and tight than knit fabric. I suggest choosing the size that best suits the amount of negative/positive ease you prefer for socks.
Pattern Notes
Find the yarn featured in this pattern here.
These are my favorite sock blockers.
This pattern is worked in a spiral, so be sure to mark the first stitch of every round with a stitch marker.
This pattern provides instructions for an afterthought heel. If you would like to substitute a different heel, simply omit the heel instructions, and substitute your chosen heel after completing the leg.

Finishing
Cut any attached yarn, and weave in your ends.
My favorite way to finish a pair of socks is to wet block them. Fill a sink or small tub with lukewarm water and add some wool wash if desired. Insert the socks into the water, and let sit for about 5 minutes. Place the socks on sock blockers appropriate to your size, and let them air dry.
Lastly, enjoy and show off your beautiful handmade socks, or gift them to someone special. If desired, share them on Instagram using the #satisfactionsocks and #crochetsocks tag @thegracefultangle!
