Put a little PRIDE in your step with this fun themed take on a traditional Estonian Spiral Ribbed Knit.

The sock has sizes in small, medium, and large.
Scale between size 1 through size 2 US knitting needles to get these numbers:

small: 7-8 inch circumference
medium: 8-9 inch circumference
large: 9-10 inch circumference

This pattern has been designed to work with Self-Striping yarn but with some row counting you could mix and match any colors of yarn as an alternative.

You will want :

  • at least 300 yards of your main striping yarn

  • A heelskeins worth of contrast yarn for fun contrast cuffs and heels and toes like the pictured sample

I reccomend Pride colors! But don’t feel bad if you aren’t in a place where you can spread the Pride, you could use any colorways to get Bright and Bold effects, or pick softer colors for a calmer sensory experience
