Splotch Sox are a fun way to bring the happiness of a warm vacation to you anytime.

The fun splotches move up and down the socks allowing a good deal of stretch and comfort. The happy colors of the yarn bring a smile and spring in your step even in the coldest of settings.

The socks are made on double pointed needles worked in the round. As each splotch is completed another begins which has a funny way of tempting the knitter to continue on. Knit from the cuff down, the foot is half pattern and half plain knit to add comfort while walking.
