The Tile Socks are a fun, beautiful, and cozy sock pattern. They are knit using a technique called mosaic knitting. Mosaic knitting produces a colorwork effect while working with only one color at a time and slipping the contrasting color.

The pattern uses two colorways. Mini skeins plus a solid complimentary color would be a great way to put minis to use as well.
