This is a tutorial about how to get your socks to fit. Information on needle size and stitch count to start with applies to 4-ply/fingering yarns. However, the theory can be applied to any weight of yarn.
Here is the equations shown in the tutorial:
Leg circumference (in inches) - 1.5 inches = Sock circumference
Stitches per inch x sock circumference = stitches needed to cast on
Here is an example:
Leg circumference = 8 inches
Stitches per inch = 9 stitches per inch
Leg circumference (in inches) - 1.5 inches = Sock circumference
8-1.5= 6.5 inches Sock circumference
Stitches per inch x sock circumference = stitches needed to cast on
9 x 6.5 = 58.5 stitches
I would round this up to 60 stitches
