These fun two-color socks are a blast to knit, and the German Short-Row Heel ensures your pattern is not interrupted by heel increasing. Grab two highly-contrasting skeins, and get to slipping!

This sock is from my latest sock collection, Socks for Busy B’s 5. Released as a part of the 2020 Summertime Sock Knitting Extravaganza, aka Socks on Vacay (aka Socks on Staycay due to the pandemic) with Knitted Wit, it’s the perfect collection of socks to knit all summer long. For more information on Socks on Vacay, check out my blog post.

YARN
Approximately 225-500 yds/206-457 m total fingering-weight yarn. Approximately 150-300 yds/137-274 m cA and 75-200 yds/69-183 m cB. For the socks shown, I used Knitted Wit Sock in Reforestation (cA) and Sunshine (cB)

GAUGE
32 sts & 48 rounds = 4”/10 cm in stockinette stitch in the round, measured after blocking.

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Small (Medium, Large): 6.5 (8, 9)“/16.5 (20.5, 23) cm foot circumference. 46 (58, 70) sts total.

Leg length is measured from top of heel and is completely customizable. Socks shown have a 5”/12.5 cm leg length (measured from the top of the heel).
