Knit from the toe up with a flap-and-gusset heel, this simple sock makes a great first colourwork project. The 1x1 stranding adds extra durability and warmth to the sock, while the varied row count of the vertical stripes keeps your interest as you knit.
And remember, if at first you don’t sock-ceed, stripe, stripe again.
