This sock is designed for Knit Picks Felici yarn to take advantage of the wonderful self-striping colourways, but an be made with any self-striping or single yarn.

This pattern is a top-down written pattern using double pointed needles. There are 3 size options given and you can adjust the leg height and shock length to individual requirements. Kitchener stitch is used to graft the toe together.
