| This special, super-soft ribbed 'sock' keeps your toes cozy if you have to wear a cast on a broken leg or ankle! Elastic thread is used to give the cover a strong grip so it stays on. |

Striped Cast Sock
Lion Brand® Lion® Cashmere Blend
GAUGE: 26 stitches = 4 inches [10 cm] in pattern stitch. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

SOCK
With A, cast on 54 stitches. Leave a 12-inch tail at the
beginning. This is used to sew up the sock.
Rows 1 * K3, p3 rep from * to end of row
Rows 2-8 rep row 1
Row 9-18 Change to B, rep row 1
Rows 19-20 Change to A, rep row 1
Rows 21-24 Change to B, rep row 1

Row 37 ** k2tog, k1, p2tog, p1 rep from ** to end of row --
36 sts
Row 38 rep row 37 -- 18 sts
Finishing
The toe area is finished with a 3-needle bind-off. If
you don't want to try this, simply bind off the end and sew
together.
Cut working yarn and pull through last stitch to secure.
Tie off. Turn the sock so the right sides are out.
Thread the large-eyed blunt needle with tail of yarn left at the
beginning of the sock. Sew up the sides. If you
did not do the three-needle bind-off, you will need to sew the toe
as well.
Thread the large-eyed blunt needle with the black elastic
thread. Turn the sock inside out. Starting at the
top of the sock, tie off the end of the elastic thread and weave the
elastic through the top part of the sock so that it is lying on the
inside surface (pull it reasonably tight). Continue in a
spiral until you have elastic through the entire top band of the
sock. The cast is rough and the elastic surface that you are
making ensures that the sock does not creep off. Tie off
the elastic and turn the sock right-side out.

| Striped Cast Sock Reviewed by Donna LaDuke on 2008-01-20 |
    |
| This made a great gift for a friend who broke her leg. I had to change the last row of the pattern which said to repeat the previous row. In reality I needed to k 2 tog; p 2 tog & repeat to the end. I liked the way the pattern told me to bind off. It worked great. Thanks Lion Brand!
