Garden Sprinkles is a simple sock pattern that’s especially good for variegated yarns because it intentionally breaks up pooling or patterning.

This pattern is paid for on Ravelry, but free if you download it from my website:

It has:

  • A little story with the pattern’s “why”
  • Clear, line-by-line instructions that have been tech-edited, plus an easy-to-follow chart for more experienced knitters
  • Beautiful photographs
  • Helpful schematic
  • Multiple sizes to fit most feet, from narrow to standard to wide
  • Links and hashtags so you an connect with me and my knitting community of quiet progressives

Garden Sprinkles socks are worked top-down and have a heel flap and gusset, which is the style of heel that fits the most number of people (and my favorite, as well). The pattern has alternating columns of double-slipped stitches which create raindrops of color that float along the sock and help break up any potential color patterning.
