I used 2.75mm circular needles (and the [[magic loop]] technique), with an initial cast-on of 52 stitches. I left 12 stitches unwrapped in the middle at both toe and heel. I started the ribbing 4cm after joining post-heel, and increased to 60 stitches in the round before starting the ribbing. I used K3P3 ribbing and did 48 rows of it. I cast off using the [[Icelandic Bind Off]] (knit version).
