With this pattern, you can make rounded barn toe for a toe-up sock. The pattern works for almost any yarn and stitch count. Increases are worked on sides of the sock so the increase lines will be visible. The first half of the increases are made each round while the second half is worked every other round. Just enter the total amount of stitches you wish to have for your sock and you’ll get the instructions for the increases. If you wish to have a rounded toe where the decrease lines are not visible see this pattern.
