This pattern is written to work with a variety of gauges, so that you can use anything from fingering to light worsted weight yarn. Start by choosing your yarn and needle combination, then count your stitches per 1” / 2.5 cm. If it’s not 8.5 stitches, use the alternate gauge tables. Find your stitches per 1” / 2.5 cm in the grey column, follow that row across to see the sock circumference of each size at your gauge.
Choose the size closest to your ideal sock circumference.
