To thank all of my followers who support my work by liking, sharing, and knitting my patterns, I decided to make this pattern available for free!

This pattern is Not Quite Vanilla because it has a small band of colorwork after the cuff and before the toe. There are five different options for the colorwork band, and I’ve also included a mod to knit more than one band on the leg.

I had sock sets with a main color and one or two contrasting colors in mind when creating this pattern.

Sizes: S (M, L) to fit 7-7.5 (8-8.5, 9-9.5)” or about 18-19 (20-22, 23-24) cm circumferences

Yarn:

MC: 50-80g of fingering weight yarn

1 or 2 CCs: 20g of fingering weight yarn each

Great for sock sets with contrasting colors!

If using an MC plus 2 CCs, make sure the CCs contrast with each other. (Great option for wild or busy MCs.)
If using an MC plus 1 CC, make sure the CC contrasts well with the MC.

Needles: US size 1 / 2.25mm

Extras: Stitch marker, tapestry needle

Gauge: 34 stitches and 44 rows to 4” (10cm) worked in stockinette stitch in the round.
