Knit a Sock: Step 1 The Cuff

Start your sock by swatching. ( I know... but stick with me, it's important)
Then we'll cast on using the cable cast on with extra stretchiness.

Measure around the ball of your foot and your ankle
Take that number and multiply it by your stitches per inch (spi)

For example, the ball of my foot measures 8” And my ankle is 9”
I’m knitting 9.5 spi after gauging my swatch
8 x 9.5 = 76 Since I’d like a little bit of negative ease, but not too much, I’ll cast on 72 sts.

7:23 Cast on using the cable cast on making sure to keep your spacing between stitches
(or the long tail cast on, loosely if you prefer)

Join in the round being careful not to twist your work

Begin knitting a 2 x 2 ribbing
(k2, p2, all the way round)

Shazam! You're ready for the next step. Well done!
