The next stop in Mr Stitch’s Sock Club — the Patterloop Socks — are a cozy DK-weight knit. The all-over colorwork pattern is a little mermaidy, a little geometric, and a lot of fun to knit, rippling from cuff to toe.

Worked cuff down, the design features an Eye of Partridge heel for extra durability, a Diamond Heel to add arch shaping for a snug fit, and a classic wedge toe. The stranded design gives plenty of room for color play — bold contrasts, soft fades, or whatever combination feels most like you.

The pattern is graded for five sizes and includes both written and charted instructions.
