This pattern was featured as the Sock of the Month February 2021.
Who knew that a rainbow could be this fun? These tube socks take full advantage of the clever color-shifting methods used in Swobbel sock yarn.
Worked cuff down, the rainbow portion of the yarn dances down the leg. This yarn is specially dyed so that the first section of the yarn is a rainbow, and then it moves seamlessly into a bounty of solid, white yarn. There is plenty of that white yarn to make a nice, long sock of virtually any size. Since Swobbel comes in two identical cakes, it is also super easy to craft a cozy pair of socks that match.
This pattern does not include a heel, but you could easily add one if desired. This project is worked in the round and requires knitting knowledge including: cast on, knit, purl, decreasing, kitchener stitch, and simple finishing, all on DPNs, skacel made by addi FlexiFlips, or circular needles.
