Arrowhead

Arrowhead provides simple texture stitch to add to your favorite sock pattern. The arrowhead texture is worked around the leg of the sock, and is continued down the top of the foot. Arrowhead features a slipped-stitch gusseted heel (substitute your heel of choice) and a rounded toe, both worked in a contrasting color.

The pattern is written for using the Magic Loop method but can be easily adjusted to use double pointed needles or other sock-knitting methods.
