Construction

This sock is knit from the top down in the round. The pattern is written for knitting with DPNs but can be easily translated to magic loop or any small circumference circular technique. The dot is knit using the ladder back jacquard technique, there is an afterthought heel, and the toe is knit in the traditional decreased manner.

Materials
This pattern is very flexible for gauge. I recommend that the yarns be fingering // sock weight but its ok if they differ a little. For the sample, I used 1 new skein for the Main Color and all contrast colors were from stash. BUST THAT STASH!
