knit 2-at-a-time using magic loop…experience with this technique is recommended for this pattern.

My sister’s dog, “Gypsy” chewed up the last pair of hand-knit socks I made for her…so these are a replacement. Knit using a fair-isle effect DK weight yarn, these socks knit up quickly in a beautiful self-striping pattern with just enough texture to keep them from being a boring knit.

I used just over 1 50g skein of the yarn. If you made them a touch shorter, one skein would be enough.
