For this engaging colorwork sock knitting pattern, you will need:

-approx 30-60g yarn in MC
-approx 30-60g yarn in CC
-stitch markers
-tapestry needle
-needles in the correct size (2.0-2.5 mm) needed to obtain gauge, and a smaller size for ribbing
Optional -reinforcement thread or silk/mohair yarn that matches MC
The pattern is written to accommodate different needle preferences (double points, 9 inch circulars, or long circulars with magic loop).

The sizes generally fit a women’s small, women’s medium (men’s small) and women’s large (men’s medium).

If you choose a high contrast palette, I recommend wet blocking in cool water with 1/2 to 1 cup of white vinegar added!

Happy Year of the Dragon!
