This is a sock recipe to create a pair of colorwork socks inspired by the participating country flags from the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Patterns are based on a 72-stitch sock, and charts only are included for most countries (but not all—I ran out of feet, sorry).

Using a traditional Turkish pattern adapted from Knitted Stockings from Turkish Villages by Dr. Kenan Ozbel, this stranded colorwork sock pattern is great for using up leftover scraps of self-striping socks.
