Working the New York Times crossword puzzles has become a fun routine for so many of us. In honor of this happy tradition, I designed the Nestle Your Tootsies Crossword Socks. You can knit them for men, women, or teens…sizes are adjustable depending on your needle choice and how long you work the foot portion. You can knit the socks using the classic crossword black and white, or you can use other highly contrasting colors. But you want the grid, heels, and dark squares (shown here in black) to be the dominant color. See information on color dominance at the end of the pattern.
