Sometimes, life calls for a little bit of comfort – something familiar, predictable, and yet still enjoyable to settle into. The rhythmic knit and purl patterning of this sock is just that: a sock knitting version of enjoying mac ‘n’ cheese during a quiet evening on your living room couch.

To show off the stitch pattern, I recommend knitting this pattern in a solid or tonal yarn. But, if you are knitting it just for you and your comfort, use a variegated for the fun of it! There’s no wrong way to knit Mac ‘N’ Cheese Socks so long as they bring you comfort.

This pattern has been tech edited and test knit.
