Repeat E, F, G, H, 3 times (making 4 times in all). Then narrow every other row 5 times.
Knit the 5 stitches of your 1st needle onto your 3d needle. You have now 10 stitches on each of the two needles. Break wool (leaving 12-inch length) and thread it into worsted needle. Hold sock so that the worsted needle is at your right and, always keeping wool under knitting needles, weave front and back together as follows: (*) Pass worsted needle through 1st stitch of front knitting needle as if knitting and slip stitch off the knitting needle.
Pass through 2d stitch as if purling and leave stitch on the knitting needle. Pass through 1st stitch of back needle as if purling and slip stitch off the knitting needle. Pass through 2d stitch of back needle as if knitting and leave stitch on knitting needle.
Repeat from (*) until all stitches are off needles. In order to avoid ridges across end of toe, fasten wool down the side.
Laid on a level surface the finished sock should measure: Foot—Length, 11½ inches, but 10½ to 12½ is acceptable. Leg—Length, 14 inches; circumference, 8 inches. Cuff—Circumference, unstretched, 6 inches; stretched to fullest extent, 13½ inches.
