Notes

CO 60 sts. 2” 2by2 ribbing. Then four-round stripes from different sections of same yarn. Contrast ribbing, heels and toes. Seamless round toes worked from top down.

I love these socks. So simple and comfortable and cute. I love the technique of using the same yarn but different sections to get harmonious, colour-changing stripes. And I love the basic pattern for being infinitely adaptable.
