Matcha elevates everything it’s added to, from desserts and confectionaries to hot and cold drinks. The strawberry matcha latte is a study in decadence, with layers of matcha, milk, and strawberry puree. These equally decadent socks mimic the summer drink with scalloped colourwork around the cuffs and toes, simultaneously simple and indulgent.

Sizes
There are four sizes in the pattern: 1 (18cm / 7.25” foot circumference), 2 (20cm / 8” foot circumference), 3 (22.5cm / 9” foot circumference), and 4 (25cm / 10” foot circumference). Note that the sizes listed are measured around the sock, so find your size by measuring your foot and then subtracting 10%.

Yarn and Yardage
Three contrasting colours are needed for this pattern. 260 - 395 yards are need in total: 65 - 100 yards for C1, 145 - 220 yards for C2, 50 - 75 yards for C3.

Notions
Knitting needles (DPNs or circulars), stitch markers, darning needle, and sock blockers.

Techniques
This pattern is suitable for sock knitters who are familiar with cuff down, in the round, heel flap and gusset sock construction. There is minimal stranded colourwork involved, and the colourwork sections have both charted and written instructions.
