This sock pattern is inspired by my favorite magical matriarch and her quilty, knit-worthy home. They are intended to look like a tiny sawtooth quilt for your feet!

The pattern comes with the chart used in the samples shown, but also includes 5 other colorwork charts for various “quilt blocks” for you to mix-and-match to make your own unique quilty socks.

These socks are worked cuff-down with a ribbed cuff and all over colorwork. The heel is worked as a forethought heel with a line of temporary stitches place to be taken out and put on needles later to knit the heel.

Knit these in a color shift yarn, use mini skeins, or choose your favorite solid or speckled for a variety of fun results!
