Adamas Socks

This sock has a fun brocade diamond pattern that can elevate your next sock project. This is a perfect option for a business sock or just a nice textured sock for everyday wear. This pattern works best in a solid or tonal color.

This is a top-down sock with a traditional heel flap and gusset. It is worked using magic loop; needle 1 will be the front of foot/instep/leg, and needle 2 will be the back of foot/leg and heel. Sized from child to large adult these are perfect socks for the whole family.

Work from chart or written directions, both found on page 5. There are separate charts depending on which size you knit, to ensure the diamonds are as even as possible over the top of the foot.
