Tabby Tug Socks

This innovative sock knitting pattern effectively addresses the common issue of shortie socks slipping down into your shoes. With the thoughtfully designed heel tab, you'll enjoy that extra bit of fabric that provides a secure fit, while the hemmed cuff remains low-key and comfortable inside your footwear.

This versatile pattern includes both cuff-down and toe-up instructions, catering to your personal knitting preferences and skill level. Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or just starting out, you'll find the guidance easy to follow, allowing you to create the perfect pair of shortie socks that stay in place.

If you’re using self-striping sock yarn, you might prefer a short-row heel that avoids knitting across the instep stitches. For an exceptional visual guide, I highly recommend checking out Roxanne Richardson’s informative video, which showcases three innovative methods for creating a short-row heel. This resource will enhance your sock-knitting experience and ensure a flawless fit.
