The sock-length corresponds to the foot-length. The piece is worked in the round with double pointed needles, from the leg down to the toe. Start 3 stitches before the marker, knit 2 together, knit 2 (marker sits between these 2 stitches), slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1 and pass the slipped stitch over the knitted stitch (2 stitches decreased).
