When I saw that the Dutch Sock knitting group had made the June month theme knitting Pippi Longstocking socks I couldn’t resist casting on another pair of stripy socks. Split up your bits and bobs and knit up a pair of these fun socks!

What will you need?
Lots of leftover sock yarn or minimal 2x 50-60 grams of contrasting colours. The Large size will require more than 50 grams if using one main colour for cuffs, heels, toes & stripes
Extra yarn for provisional cast on

This sock starts with an interesting provisional cast on. Just follow the instructions carefully and the magic will happen! The colours used in the chart are example colours. If you want to use up your leftovers without having any leftovers left, you can knit as many stripes of that colour as possible, before changing to the next yarn. The heel can be knit plain, but if you’re in the mood for stripes, why not?!
