Due to my own disability, I am not able to test this pattern with a screen reader, if you use a screen reader with this pattern I’d love to hear how it goes.
Designer’s description: These are smocked socks that feature a repeating ‘O’ motif that undulates in size. ”O me miserum” is Latin for ‘O wretched me’ — a good phrase to know if you ever need to sound like a posh person unironically complaining about first-world problems. These socks are knit cuff-down and have a cuff-down version of a Fleegle Heel (no picking up stitches!) and a wedge toe with a wider toe band for a better anatomical fit. The pattern contains technique illustrations, a ‘how to’ for working this pattern off gauge, both charts and written instructions, handy tips and tricks, and there’s even a little something in there for medieval marginalia conisseurs! There’s a colourful version, a black and white version for printing, and also a print disability and screen reader friendly version. This pattern has been tested and tech edited, as well as being checked by an accessibility editor.
