Take a Stroll Socks is a fun-to-knit, stranded sock that is great for wearing inside hiking boots, or with jeans, or slouched over tights. I have a similar pattern called Argylish, but this one is different. Because it uses Knit Picks Stroll Sock yarn, it is machine washable. The pattern is gender-neutral, making it a great sock for men and women alike. Because it’s stranded, you achieve double the warmth of a single strand of yarn without adding bulk. The pattern also contains instructions for an optional secret pocket for securing a key or cash, and when the top cuff is folded down, the pocket opening is completely hidden. See useful information at the end of the pattern regarding color dominance when stranding.
