These socks feature a combination of simple but elegant fair isle colorwork designs, with geometric motifs running from cuff to toe.

The socks are knitted top down from cuff to toe, with a ribbed cuff, stranded colorwork in the round, and a short row heel. The pattern is suitable for low-intermediate level knitters, or advanced beginners comfortable with colorwork.
