Cake Pop Socks
This is one of a set of very easy sock patterns part of the Vanilla Sundae Sock Set - also available together in an ebook for the best total price and bonus vanilla sock guide.
The texture formed by the purl bumps in these textured colorwork socks reminded me of the tiny sprinkles on top of a cake pop. These socks are worked using mosaic knitting, so only one color is held at a time. In between the mosaic sections, there is a break of several easy rounds of stockinette stitch. A single garter stitch ridge decorates the top of the contrast toe. These socks are fun to work to work as a mismatched set with two contrast colors. Three children sizes and four adult sizes are included in this pattern.
Construction
These socks are knit cuff-down, starting with a 2x2 ribbed cuff followed by mosaic colorwork on the leg. The heel is worked as a shadow wrap short row heel, and then the mosaic colorwork is resumed on the foot. The bumpy texture is maintained on the top of the foot, but the CC is knit on the bottom of the foot so that it is smooth. There is a decorative garter ridge at the top of the contrast toe.
