A knitted sock comprising a toe region, a midfoot region and a heel region, wherein said knitted sock comprises a knitted trapezoidal dorsal and a knitted trapezoidal plantar part which are secured by knitted medial and lateral securing regions, and wherein the knitted trapezoidal plantar and dorsal parts and the knitted medial and lateral securing regions extend in the toe region and at least partly in the midfoot region.
A method for knitting a knitted sock comprising a toe region, a midfoot region and a heel region, wherein said method comprises:
- a step of knitting B a trapezoidal dorsal or plantar part by progressively decreasing the number of knitted stitches per row(s) of stitches;
- a step C of knitting a trapezoidal plantar or dorsal part from the distal end of the knitted trapezoidal dorsal or plantar part by progressively increasing the number of knitted stitches per row(s) of stitches;
- a step D of knitting a lateral securing region and a medial securing region which secure the knitted trapezoidal dorsal and plantar parts along their respective lateral and medial edges, the knitting D of said lateral and medial securing regions being carried out progressively during the knitting step C;
- wherein the knitted trapezoidal dorsal and plantar parts and said knitted medial and lateral securing regions are knitted so as to extend in the toe region and at least partly in the midfoot region of the knitted sock;
- and wherein said method comprises a step A of knitting an aperture opening out into the foot-receiving volume of the sock.
