Scrappy DK Socks
Collect your color leftover bits of DK weight yarn and knit these super simple topdown socks. The socks feature a garter stitch heel flap and simple stockinette stitch for the leg and foot. Stripe your colors together to use those DK weight color pops in your stash. You can also hold two strands of fingering weight together and mix in your worsted weight yarns too!
