Pattern will become available the first week of April 2022! Check back soon! #coldbrewsocks

This is my basic vanilla sock recipe with a twist! It is perfect for self-striping sock yarns and adds a bit of fun to a finished pair of striped socks. It includes instructions for a 2x2 ribbing on the cuff, a German short row heel, and a wedge toe. Feel free to substitute your favorite cuff, heel, and toe if you’d like!

The pattern is written for 9” circulars, however, it can be easily modified if you choose to use double-pointed needles or the magic loop method.

Note that the number of rounds on the cuff, leg, and foot are entirely personal preference and should be adjusted to your fit and liking.

Small (medium, large)
