The Quarto Sock is intended to make stranded colorwork knitting approachable and fun. Designed with beginner knitters in mind, this DK-weight sock pattern is a cozy and satisfying project.

Featuring a sturdy yet stylish Eye of Partridge heel and a double gusset for a snug fit, these socks are built for both comfort and durability. Photographs of the double gusset construction and links to video tutorials make tricky parts easy to navigate.

Instructions are available in both charted and written formats, so you can pick the style that works best for you. Graded to five sizes (6.25” / 17 cm to 11” / 28 cm foot circumference), the Quarto Sock is designed to fit a wide range of feet.
