Knitted socks for kids and adults – sizes?

How long should the foot be when knitting socks for children or adults????? Yes, that’s sometimes a good question – especially if the foot isn’t close by and you’ve taken up knitting for others….

Below you can see a size chart and also get an indication of the number of stitches. Note it is the length of the FOOT (without toe but incl. heel)

If you want inspiration for knitted socks, you can find patterns at drops.dk (garnstudio). They have patterns for many different socks and with different patterns.
Remember that my size chart fits needles 3-3.5. What I usually need for the different sizes is the length of the foot in cm. Especially when you knit for others
than yourself and do not have the “foot next door” and can try the sock on….. I have enjoyed the chart – and I hope you will too.
