Block-in-block socks
This colorwork pattern of blocks is super mindful to knit, because you will quickly memorize it. The pattern describes the version with 1 main color and 3 contrast colors, but of course, you can also knit it entirely knit it in 2 colors. The instruction contains a clear colorwork chart of the block-in-block pattern.

Materials
This pattern is written for sock yarn with a gauge of 28 stitches x 40 rows. I do not recommend choosing yarn with a smaller gauge (like 30 or 32 stitches), especially for the larger size. When you are knitting size 40-41 or you prefer socks with a slightly wider fit, use needles 2.75 mm to knit the colorwork.
