Whether you’re using up a random fingering weight skein that’s been sitting in your stash for a while or diving into a stunning sock set with one or more minis, vanilla socks are a fantastic go to project. Yet Another Vanilla Sock pattern is a minimal frills, straight forward, heel flap style sock great for on the go or low concentration TV time.

Instructions include guidance for up to three colors. Knitters can knit:

  • A full pair of socks with a single skein of fingering weight yarn
  • A two color version by alternating skeins for cuff, heel, toe, and leg/foot
  • A three color version for those sock sets with multiple minis or using up scraps

The pattern can be easily adjusted to lengthen, or shorten, the leg to desired height. This will impact the amount of yarn required.

Sample pair of socks pictured use Cozy Cauldron soft sock base in the Peony sock set colors.
