Description
Recently I had a friend undergoing chemotherapy and I needed to knit him something. His hands and feet were/are always cold so a sock was the perfect choice. The title is an homage to my friend whose last name is Power.
Details: I didn’t have his foot readily available for measuring so I made sure there was plenty of ribbing for ease of fit and sizing. It knits up quickly in a light worsted yarn knitted on a tight gauge. The princess sole means that with the purl side out the inside is smooth for the wearer. The only finishing is the afterthought heel.
Sizes: Womens, (Mens/Womens Wide, Mens Wide)
Flat measurements: 3.5 (3.75, 4) inches As these socks are knit from the toe up it is very easy to adjust width and length.
The gauge looks a little weird because it is measured with a non-standard gauge pattern. With the larger needles I knit 19 sts of 1×1 and 4 sts of 2×2 rib for 23 sts total. This gave me 3 inches unstretched.
