How to Use

  1. Enter your total stitch count when you begin the toe (e.g., 64 for a standard adult sock).
  2. Enter your desired final stitch count, or leave blank for the standard 12 stitches.
  3. Choose your toe style and click Generate Toe Instructions.

Tips

  • The standard wedge toe divides stitches evenly between instep and sole (2 markers, 4 decrease points).
  • Always begin toe decreases about 2" before your desired finished length.
  • After reaching final stitch count, cut yarn and use Kitchener stitch or 3-needle bind-off to close.
  • For a wider toe box, use a larger final stitch count (16–20 sts).
