This knitting pattern is perfect to play with self-striping sock yarn as our hand-dyed Bis-Sock yarn. This sock design was written for the Biscotte Mystery Sock Club - October 2015. Another original sock pattern by Louise Robert

The pattern is written in one size and you can extend the length of the foot according to the desired size. The number of stitches to cast-on may seem too large but note that the triangles and diamond shapes are made of diagonal rows and that’s why the number of stitches has been revised accordingly.

A diagram is available at the end of the document. Upon reading this chart, you have to figure that the schematic is presented in two dimensions while the actual form of this diagram is a cylinder. For this reason, you will see shapes that are repeated (in gray): they are there to help you visualize the evolution, step by step.

That said, do not be fooled (or discourage) by the schematic. The chart is there to support the pattern but you can follow the written instructions without using the diagram if you prefer. Despite appearances, this model is very instinctive and easy to knit. Have fun !!

In addition to the sock pattern, you’ll need the following material to knit these socks:

100g of Bis-Sock self-striping yarn (the original version was knitted with the Candy Corn colour and the second sample (in blue) was knitted with Frederique colour)

Needles of 2.5 (or size needed to obtain gauge)
