Mom always chained the length of the foot plus a couple, sc in both loops so it's a smooth stitch, not ridged, until it went around the foot. Stitch up the back of the heel, st the top of the foot from where the front of the ankle would be to the toe, and gather the toe shut. You could do that, then pick up stitches around the ankle and knit the cuff.

Sorry, no real pattern.

This pattern is all crochet but to me the cuff has the look of knit. Mary
