These socks finally give knitters a way of making the most out of variegated yarn and opens up a world of possibilities for some sock yarns you might not have known what to do with before to maximise their colour potential.

The stitch pattern used in this sock plays around with the depth of knitted lines, so breaking up the variegated colours of the sock whilst also giving a slight texture to the socks.

The stitch pattern is so stretchy and comfortable, they feel wonderful to wear and are great fun to knit. The pattern works up surprisingly quickly and there is a lot of satisfaction in watching the pattern work its magic with the yarn.
