UPDATE: The designer’s original pair of socks (with a Rockies pinstriped pattern) have been accepted for inclusion in the collection at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, as part of the upcoming display on Stitch ‘N Pitch. (Baseball knitters rock! :)

NOTE: This pattern is best for a knitter with experience doing both socks and colorwork. The festive knitting technique, while advanced, results in a stretchier sock that will fit a larger range of sizes.*

From the pattern intro:

This is a great knitting project for the ultimate baseball fan. These socks can be knit in two sizes: a larger size for a woman who wears a size 8 shoe or a child who wears a size 6 shoe (with a foot approximately 9¼ inches long) and a smaller size for a woman who wears a size 5½ shoe or a child who wears a size 4 shoe (with a foot approximately 8½ inches long).

Yarn: Sock yarn (fingering weight) in the your team colors. You will need approximately 400 yards (2-50 gram skeins) of your main color (MC), 400 yards (2-50 gram skeins) of your contrast color (CC), and 400 yards (2-50 gram skeins) of your second contrast color (CC2), if your team’s sock has three colors.
