Socks have negative ease with plenty of stretch to ensure a snug fit while still pulling easily over the heel.

Yarn

You’ll need ten (10) 20g mini skeins. Each stripe pattern uses a different amount of yarn—gram approximations are called out with each Ornament Stripe. Approximations are given for two (2) socks.
