Sweetheart & Stripes socks
These Sweetheart & Stripes socks are a combination of selfstriping sock yarn and a colourwork pattern of hearts. The colourwork part is short (only 18 rows) and easy to knit using the colour chart in the pattern. The combination of the coloirwork with the selfstriping yarn creates a beautiful result! The pattern is written for knitting with 5 DPNs.

Bonus design
In this second version of the pattern I added an extra design. It is a combination of self-striping yarn and embroidered hearts. Very enjoyable and easy to do and with a cute effect. The embroidery stitches are clearly explained in text and photos.

For DPNs and Magic Loop
This cuff down pattern with heel flap and round toe is easy to knit, also for beginning sock knitters. It is suitable for both knitting with DPNs and magic loop. The instructions for these different type of needles are clearly indicated in the text.

EU sizes: 36-41

The pattern contains 2 width sizes: for both 60 and 64 stitches in the round.

Materials
You can choose any selfstriping yarn (70-80 grams) you like, with a gauge of 28x40, by 10x10 cm. You also need some additional sock yarn to knit the tricolor heart pattern (1 x 10, 2 x 6 grams).
