A square based on an afghan my friend found at a thrift store. Gauge isn’t super important.

This pattern is totally super for using sock yarn you want to show off in a more visible place than your feet, and there aren’t any increases to stretch out the stripes. You get a nice tube that lets the yarn flow the way the sock-gods intended. It’s highly customizable, so you can add or take away stitches and rows to make it fit just right.
