Repeat the last 2 rows until the ribbing part measures 9-10 cm in length. Finish the ribbing with a row on the right side, then bind off all stitches on the wrong side.

Cut the yarn, leaving a 50 cm tail. Fold the sock with the wrong side facing out. Sew the ribbing part on the wrong side using a mattress stitch. Then, turn the sock right side out and continue sewing the heel and sole. For the sole, insert the needle through the initial cast-on stitches. Do not finish sewing the sole yet. To shape the front section of the sole (the area near the toes), use the yarn tail to thread through the last 8 stitches—4 stitches from each side of the opening. Pull the yarn gently to gather these stitches and form a rounded shape at the toe. This method is similar to shaping the crown of a knitted hat. Weave in all ends to complete.
