How to make it
Take two strands of wool yarn, then make a slip knot with a 30 cm or more tail. After that, make HDC sticks until it reaches the same length and width. Cut the yarn with 15cm or more thread tail. Enter one of the threads into the tapestry needle, and slide the needle along the top chain of the HDC stitch next to the needle.
The next thing you have to do is insert the thread tail along the top row and pull the thread until the sheet forms round. Then, sew both sides of the sheet with a trail stick. Turn off the thread and fold the other side of the sheet. Bring both sides together with a stab stick, then turn off the thread. To make the top of the socks, connect with the HDC stitch around the circle of the foot.
