Heartsplosion is a stranded colorwork sock pattern that is written in three sizes. Each size has been individually charted so that they all have the full Heartsplosion effect. While the three sizes have slight differences in the charts to make this happen, they are all similar and will be recognizable as the same pattern.

While this pattern is perfect for using scraps or miniskeins, it can also be made using just one contrast color throughout.

Great for Valentine’s Day!

Links to two video tutorials are also included.

There is an extensive notes section that gives many tips on knitting stranded colorwork socks, and making sure they fit.

There are two files that come with this pattern: the main file that includes the pattern and all the charts, and a second file that consists only of larger sized versions of the charts, in case the charts in the main file are too small to work from comfortably.
