Totem

The official description: To work with the color shifts of handpainted yarn, Totem uses a type of slipped stitch in a geometric pattern that resembles the monumental cedar sculptures. A lateral braid creates the illusion of knit stitches rotated 90°.

FINISHED SIZE 5¾ (7½, 8¾)” (14.5 19, 22 cm) foot circumference and 8½ (10¼, 11¾)” (21.5 26, 30 cm) long from back of heel to tip of toe; to fit women’s U.S. shoe size 6½ (8½, 10½). Socks shown measure 7½” (19 cm).

Notes: To accommodate a deep heel or high instep, you may choose to add additional stitches before the heel in the mini-gusset section, then decrease them in the purl column in the beginning of the leg.

If your foot circumference is larger (or smaller) than your ankle circumference, you may cast on more (or fewer) stitches in the foot section and decrease (or increase) as needed in the columns of knit stitches that divide the front and back of the sock.
