Toe Up Small Shell Sock Pattern

So here is another version of the Small Shelled sock pattern. As mentioned in a previous post, using a size E hook got me a sock that was a little big. I went down to a size C and got better results.






So, here is my pattern:
So here is my pattern:

Ch 4, join to form ring, 9 sc in the ring
Working in continuous rounds:
Round 1: 2 sc in each sc, 18 sc total
Round 2: *2 sc in next sc, sc in next sc* repeat around, 27 sc total
Round 3: sc in each sc around
Round 4: *2 sc in next sc, sc in the next 2 sc* repeat around, 36 sc total
Round 5: sc in each sc around
Round 6: *3 sc in next sc (shell made), skip next sc,* repeat around, 18 shells total
Round 7: Shell in center sc shell from previous round. repeat around.
Continue row 7 until about 1 ½ inches from desired foot length. I did 30 shell rows for my sock.

Short row heel:
Ch 1, turn
sc in next 25, ch 1 turn
sc in the next 23, ch 1 turn
sc in the next 21, ch 1 turn
sc in the next 19, ch1 turn
sc in the next 17, ch 1 turn
sc in the next 15, ch 1 turn
sc in the next 13, ch 1 turn
sc in the next 11, ch1 turn

sc in the next 10 sc, insert hook in next sc and draw up a loop, insert hook in side of row and draw another loop, YO and draw though all three loops, sc in then next 2 sc, ch 1 turn.

sc in the next 12 sc, insert hook in next sc and draw up a loop, insert hook in side of row and draw another loop, YO and draw though all three loops, sc in then next 2 sc, ch 1 turn.

Continue on with the leg:

9 shell in the 9 shell along the top of the foot, evenly space 9 shell along the heel(shell in next sc on heel, skip 2 sc). 18 shells total

Repeat as in round 7 of foot until desired leg legth


Ribbed cuff:
Slip stitch with the first sc of the next shell,
ch 3, Dc in first and last sc of the 18 shells, join at top
Do 4 rows (or more if desired) of alternating Front and back post dc’s, finish off.
