A playful, easy-to-knit pair of gnome-inspired socks with stranded colourwork placed only on the leg and right before the toe—perfect even for newer colourwork knitters. The pattern is written for 4-ply sock yarn, and the Main Colour can be solid or variegated, depending on the look you prefer.

The file includes detailed calculations and charts for all possible sizes. This is one of the most versatile sock patterns you’ll ever knit. Thanks to the wide size range, it can be easily adapted for everyone — from a small toddler to an adult with a very large foot (EU 45–47).

The socks are simple and enjoyable to knit. The adjustable heel construction is independent of the colourwork section, making fitting easy and stress-free, no matter the size you choose.

The pattern also offers great creative freedom: feel free to mix solid and artistic yarns in any combination you like. Whether you prefer subtle contrasts or bold colour play, the design adapts beautifully to your yarn choices.
