The Adventurer's Socks Knitting Pattern

*PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A DIGITAL DOWNLOAD FOR THE KNITTING PATTERN ONLY*

The perfect snug sock to keep your toes toasty on long adventures. The rib gusset is designed to give extra grip through the leg and help keep the socks from slipping down as you make your way through untold lands.

These socks are knit toe up with a German short row heel. A 2x2 rib band runs up both sides of the leg before ending in a 1x1 rib cuff.
