ABSTRACT:
The high-splice area, heel, instep, sole ring-toe area, and toe of the present sock includes a heavy wool yarn knit in plated relationship with body yarn so that the wool yarn is exposed on the outside of these areas of the sock to provide a soft and fuzzy appearance thereto. The wool yarn also forms inwardly extending terry loops in these areas of the sock to provide a "cushion foot" and good moisture absorbency to the lower portion of the foot of the sock. Elastic yarn is incorporated in spaced-apart wales and floats inside of multiple wales to form mock ribs in the leg and instep while the elastic yarn is incorporated in alternate single wales of alternate single courses and in intervening single wales of intervening single courses of the high-splice area and sole, and ring-toe area to provide stretchability and firm support so that these areas are maintained in close engagement with the lower portion of the foot of the wearer.
