I find the best way to love someone is not to change them, but instead, help them reveal the greatest version of themselves.

Sometimes in life you are the flower climbing up the lattice, and other times you are the lattice that is supporting that growth. The supportive relationship of the lattice helping beautiful flowers rise up is the inspiration of these 2 color socks featuring a lattice motif that rises up the foot of the sock.

The Rise Up socks are a fun way to combine 2 of your favorite colors or use up scraps that might not have enough yardage for a full pair of socks. These socks feature a fun slipped st motif, and through switching colors every round you create a lattice that rises up your foot. The design also features a solid toe, heel and cuff to highlight the stitch motif.

Grab 2 colors of yarn and start an addicting pair of socks to knit, and a striking pair of socks to wear!

SIZES:
Child (Adult-XSmall, Adult-Small, Adult-Medium)(Adult-Large, Adult-XLarge)
To fit foot circumference of 6 (7, 8, 9)(10, 11)” 15 (17.5, 20, 22.5)(25, 27.5) cm
Foot circumference: 5 (6, 7, 8)(9, 10)“ 12.5 (15, 17.5, 20)(22.5, 25) cm
Leg Height: 3.5 (6.5, 7, 7.5)(8, 8.5)” 9 (16.5, 17.5, 19)(20, 21.5) cm

YARN:
Fingering-weight sock yarn (approximately 400 yards per 100 grams) of 2 colors, with MC needing more yardage (60-70g for larger sizes).

If you swap the MC and CC for the 2nd sock, you will use 50% of each color.

Most sizes can be knit with a 100g of fingering weight yarn. The largest sizes, especially if knit for long feet, may require additional yardage.

YARN COLORS:

• I recommend pairing a solid or tonal colorway with a highly contrasting variegated, tonal, self-striping, or gradient!
• For highest contrast, pick 2 colorways with no matching colors.
• Swap the MC and CC on the 2nd sock as a fun way of mixing things up, and creating distinctly unique yet matching socks!

HEEL: Spacious OMG heel
