Bring the aquarium with you everywhere you go with the bright, potato chip-y stranded colorwork of the Hidden Depths Socks. There may even be a duplicate stitch surprise waiting for you in the deeper waters. Knit with fluorescent yarn (such as my Fishy Minis here) for an extra pop under actinic aquarium lighting.

The socks are knit cuff down with a 2x2 ribbed cuff, 2-color stranded colorwork, duplicate stitch details, a German short row heel, and a grafted toe.
