Can anyone help me find a pattern for socks that have a divided toe area for wearing with thong sandals? All those I have found have 5 separate toes. I want one with just the big toe separate.
have you tried searching knitty?
i’m baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! 
here’s a link to a pattern that costs $4.50. and they’re really cute! i might have to get that one myself!
you’re looking for a fiber trends pattern called toe jazz.

Hey, I’m actually in Asheville at this very moment. I could stop by Earth Guild tomorrow.
