I named this design Stashbusters! because this pattern is great for using up partial skeins from your stash. Combine colors that you wouldn’t ever dream to combine – it works! Seriously. Designed specifically for variegated yarns, the simple slipped-stitch pattern on these socks yields an impressive pair to wear or give as a gift. Although designed for two colorways, this pattern is also uniquely attractive when knit from one skein of variegated yarn. Or, expand the pattern to include as many colorways as you like, and use up lots of small leftover balls! This cuff-down sock design includes left- and right-slanted stitch patterns so that your socks can be mirror images of each other, a shadow-wrapped short row heel, and is written for three widths, so lots of people can benefit from your stashbusting!
