Introducing an expert blend of vanilla ease and fun flair for sock knitting - the Colourblock Socks. A classic cuff down, heel flap and gusset vanilla sock pattern, spiced up with a dash of easy colourwork. Perfect for beginners, these mismatched socks are designed for knitters who want to express themselves while keeping things light and interesting.

Sizes
There are four sizes in the pattern: 1 (18cm foot circumference); 2 (20cm foot circumference); 3 (22.5cm foot circumference); and 4 (25cm foot circumference). Note that the sizes listed are measured around the sock, so find your size by measuring your foot and then subtracting 10%. The pattern specifies 40 repeats of the leg round, but this could be lengthened or shortened depending on whether you want long socks or ankle socks.

Yarn and Yardage
One skein of variegated yarn and one skein of tonal yarn are used for extra contrast. The pattern specifies 40 repeats of the leg round, but this could be lengthened or shortened depending on whether you want long socks or ankle socks. This will change the yardage to be more or less respectively.

Notions
Needles (DPN’s or circulars), darning needle, stitch markers, and sock blockers if desired.
