The pattern is knit with 2 skeins in colour Girly Stripe (main colour) and 1 skein in colour Crazy Stripe (contrasting colour). There is quite a bit of yardage left over. If knit in one colourway only, 2 skeins would suffice for the entire pair of socks. A good first pair of socks knitting project.

Here is the description from the magazine’s pattern page:
“An elongated row or two can be just the accent for a pair of socks. To ensure that it gets noticed, we added a contrasting color. Have fun with the knitting, the results will surely make you want to dance.”
