Notes
This pattern is written for DK weight yarn.
But, you can also use fingering weight yarn held double to achieve this weight.
I did this when knitting up the size large to test the pattern and used approx. 110 grams of fingering weight total for a Mens US Size 10. This is a great and fun way to use up some leftover bits of yarn and have a fun marled pair of scrappy socks!
Or grab two fingering weight skeins out of your
stash and use them up. So many fun stash busting possibilities when holding fingering weight double for these socks!

Please keep in mind that for larger feet you may use more than 100 grams of DK weight for a pair. You can also do a shorter leg (shortie socks too!) to use less yarn and have more for the foot.
I have a video on shorties here: https://youtu.be/oBaxuAnNyyI , the same would apply to how to do them for these socks. Just whatever length cuff and leg you want. Have fun and experiment! :slightly_smiling_face:
