A fun & easy knit, these socks are worked in the round from the top down, beginning with a 2x2 rib cuff. The leg is worked in an easily memorized pattern, which adds texture & interest to the leg whether you are using a solid colored yarn or a variegated one.

The sample is knit in my Rolling E Ranch merino silk fingering weight yarn, but any brand of fingering will do.

I have a lot of chickens here on our ranch, and most of them free range, whether I want them to or not…for creatures with such a tiny little brain, they sure do have a mind of their own. As I was struggling to come up with a cute and memorable name for this pattern, I just happened to look out the window, and there were those pesky little critters leaving their tracks everywhere!!
