Autumn Socks
Perfectly cozy and just in time for my favourite season! Stranded colourwork perfect for special sock sets and minis!

They are constructed cuff down and include a gusset and heel flap heel construction. I have written these for 3 sizes.

The colourwork charts are offered in original and inverse colours for ease of reading no matter what colours your choose. As well as mirrored options for right and left feet.

The socks are knit with the colourwork at the cuff….AND some of the amazing testers even added the colourwork to the entire sock! Make sure to check out all the projects for some serious inspiration.

I have included a bonus download that outlines all the tips, tricks and techniques for knitting stranded colourwork socks. The guide includes pictures, explanations and lots of links to techniques to help you knit your perfect stranded socks.
