THE ALL TOGETHER NOW SOCKS This sock pattern is worked in the round, from the top down. It begins with a ribbed cuff, then a section of 1x1 stranded colorwork, then a short row heel using wrap and turn, before finishing with similar colorwork along the foot, and wedge shaping for the toe.

This is an All Together Now series pattern, which means it’s designed for stash busting all those beautiful leftovers, scraps, or single skeins. It also works as a beautiful fade for those sock sets looking for a project! Create something in your perfect palette!

Socks are intended to fit with negative ease, however colorwork is also less stretchy than stockinette. Choose a size with a approx. 0.5 in 1.25 cm negative ease based on actual foot circumference to ensure a snug finished fit.

The length of the cuff, leg, and foot are easily customizable by working more or less of the colorwork chart, until reaching your desired length.

The sample is a size 7, shown on US 8.5 size foot that has 9 in 23 cm circumference with 1 in 2.5 cm negative ease. The sample pair is worked with a sock set with one main color and six accent colors as a gradient fade.
