This is the tenth pattern in a collection of 12 sock patterns that will be released in collaboration with a Canadian indie yarn dyer. Each pattern and yarn colour way will be centered around a theme representing that month.

A new pattern will be released on the 2nd of every month and a KAL will be running on Instagram with the #yearofsockskal - Check out my Instagram for more information: @pauladrouillard

The Gates of Autumn sock pattern features a large colourwork band around the leg of the sock. The motif is knit in contrast using a 20g mini. Feel free to play around with your colours using a variegated or speckled yarn. You can make the motif more or less visible by playing around with the contrast of the colours. The sock is knit cuff down with a heel flap and gusset construction. The sock also features a delicate texture on the instep and is available in three sizes.
