Using the same stitch design used for the other patterns in the Lombard collection, I have created 2 versions of the Lombard Socks that are available individually or together in the Lombard Sock ebook.

Colorful is a 2-color stranded color-work sock pattern, that both simplifies and builds on the Textureful version of the pattern. While the sock construction is the same, and there is nothing more difficult than an ssk in the pattern, it does require confidence to dive into making a pair of color-work socks.

The pattern is written assuming circular needles, size 1.5 US/2.5 mm.

NOTIONS:
1 beginning of row marker
2 optional stitch markers, 1 optional lever-back progress keeper
Darning needle
Second circular needle for the toe
