Saul Goodman (AKA Jimmy McGill) is the main character in Better Call Saul and the criminal lawyer in Breaking Bad! Saul really tries to be a good lawyer on a straight path but has a hard time when the thrill of the scandal pulls him in a different direction.
The socks are a casually broken rib pattern, knit cuff down, featuring a Half Linen Stitch Heel Flap (there’s a tutorial), and a rounded toe! If you prefer to knit toe up – just follow the stitch pattern and make your normal adjustments.
There are four (4) sizes available with this pattern – Extra Small (56 Stitches), Small (60 Stitches), Medium (64 Stitches), and Large (72 Stitches). If you need a different size, just make sure you cast on a multiple of 2 and the pattern will work!
