Don’t let the sock craze leave you behind. Here is a fun and easy way to knit socks with 2 straight needles.

The basic crew sock is fancied up with a fun and colorful mosaic pattern. Worked with 2 colors (a light and dark) you only knit with one color at any time making colorful knitting without the tangles.

When working the pattern, the chart must be worked in conjunction with the written pattern.

If you print out the chart and you may wish to color in the boxes to help with seeing the pattern.
