These socks were my take along project for Knit ‘n Sip meetings. The meetings take place at a cozy cafe on Schöneggplatz. Hence the name of the socks. The pattern is easy to memorize and doesn’t require too much attention. Therefore it is a nice project to take along with you.
I designed this pattern specially for a self-striping sock yarn. The slipped stitches and purl ridges are meant to take advantage and show off the stripy yarn. I recommend using yarn that keeps the same color for at least one round.

Material: Rico Design Superba Stripy (100 g = 420 m / 460 yards). Depending on the foot size, about 260 - 300 m / 285 - 330 yards. The sock length is adjustable, you can make them as long as much yarn you have.
Gauge: 26 sts = 10 cm / 4’’
