Sizes
Small (Medium, Large)
The circumference around the foot of the sock, i.e. the first purple stripe on the sock, is 15 (17.5, 19.5) cm to fit
a foot with a circumference of 15-17.5 (17.5-20, 20-22.5) cm. The length of the sock is adjustable.
To make the socks fit well on the foot, choose a size about 2.5 cm narrower than the circumference of the foot and knit them 2.5 cm shorter than the length of the foot.
