CO 14 stitches per needle.. Usual rounded toe, Inc to 32 per needle. Over the next 4 rows, increase on instep each end every other row until instep needle has 36 stitches
4 more rows then start pattern
On 10th pattern rep start increasing on sole to 38 stitches on every even row.
Start flk heel from end of 11th pattern rep. Decrease back to 36 stitches on heel after flk.
2 pattern repeats with plain on back of leg, then start pattern all round leg.
6 pattern repeats, 12 rows 2x2 rib. CO.
This is a really tight sock. Next time switch to a larger needle for the foot and leg.
I eased up on the tension on the second sock. Much better fit!
-- -next time I do this pattern,follow this advice:
Follow fairisle’s notes to work EOP slip stitch on sole once the gusset decreases were done, to match row gauge with the top of foot.
