Sporty Diamond Socks
This fine looking two colour sock is not only pretty, it also has a clever solution to maintaining the elasticity throughout the colourwork. It uses a variation of ladder-back stitches to carry the contrast colour yarn and avoid long sensitive floats on the back.
The construction of the sock is otherwise conventional; knitted top down with a reinforced heel flap and a shaped toe.
Materials
Yarn: 2 x 100 g Drops Fabel (210 m / 50 g, 75% wool, 25% polyamide) or equivalent in contrasting colours
Needles and notions: Double pointed needles size 2½ mm or US 1½, 4 stitch markers
Gauge: 32 sts / 44 rows in Stockinette stitch = 10 cm or 4 inches
Sizes: Ladies XS/S M L XL
Skill level: Intermediate or advanced

De här sockorna är inte bara fina att titta på, de döljer också en särskild teknik för att göra så att tvåfärgsstickningen blir mer elastisk. Den har extra maskor som löper längs insidan av sockan och gör att vi undviker långa känsliga flotteringar.
Konstruktionen i övrigt är traditionell, uppifrån och ner med en förstärkt häl och formad tå.

Some words from the test knitters:
The Ladder Back was a bit tricky at the start but after that it was easy.
The instructions were easy to read - but I couldn’t make friends with Ladder back.
First time for me working ladderback. The fabric is nice and stretchy…
The sock is a little thicker than the average sock. It will be great to wear in boots but it might not fit in some of my shoes.
