Kii's Vanilla Socks
Toe-up socks using a shadow-wrapped heel, because i like being able to finish my socks whenever i want and don't like messing with gussets.
Materials
Instructions are written for a circular needle.
1 skein sock yarn and a US size 1 (2.25mm) needle are the standard sock-knitting supplies but the whole point of a generator is the ability to go off the default. Whatever floats your gauge.
