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).
