This pattern was originally designed for the November 08 Sock Knitters Anonymous Mystery Sock Challenge.

Simple and classic mosaic/slipped stitch pattern that can be knit for either a man or a woman, given the right colors. Easy colorwork without the stranding/floats! If you can slip a stitch, you can knit this design!

The colors should contrast very strongly to work best for this pattern but just about any combo works….even colors you would usually never put together!

Depending on the size of your foot and the length of your leg you will need approx. 350 yards for the main color.

You will need less than 20 grams or about 50 yards for each of the 2 contrasting colors.

The chart “looks” incorrect as it seems as if the black/no color portions should be the MC however it is these sections that form the vertical stripe and so are your CCA
