These socks are knitted from the toe up with a standard heel flap type heel and some fun stranded colorwork on the leg. Though the colorwork takes 2 contrast colors, only 2 colors are ever used in the same round.

The sample is a size C (8 inches / 20 cm circumference) worked in Emma’s Yarn Practically Perfect Sock with a main color of Bohemian Market, a contrast color 1 of Wish You Were Beer, and a contrast color 2 of Briar Rose.
