These socks are a pretty way to combine a self striping with a tonal yarn using mosaic knitting, so you only use one colour at a time! You could also make a scrappy version with minis or leftovers!
Pattern Notes:
This pattern comes in three adult sizes. I provide instructions for a heel flap and gusset, and a standard rounded toe, but your preferred heel/toe method or pattern can be substituted.
Materials: Two 40-50 gram skeins of sock weight yarn, one tonal and one self striping (I used Comfy Cozy Knits Autumnal set) and one 20 gram mini
(80-100 grams/350-400 yards/320-365 metres)
2.25 mm - 2.5 mm (US 1 – 1.5) needles (pattern is written for magic loop using a 32” circular but DPNs or 2 circs can be used) with needle size that achieves the gauge you prefer.
