    Abstract: A selected number of size indicating stripes is formed in a particular location in the socks, such as the cuff. The number of size indicating stripes is selected to indicate the size of the particular sock in which the size indicating stripes are knit so that the size of the particular sock is easily recognizable by the number of size indicating stripes knit therein. The size indicating stripes extend completely around the sock and are knit with circular courses of a particular color of yarn, which color contrasts with the color of the yarn knit in the adjacent areas of the sock.
