This top-down sock pattern has an easy four row repeat in a slip stitch pattern which nicely breaks up the pooling found frequently in variegated yarns. It also has a nice squishy feel to it which makes for a nice hug for your legs and feet. It is also great for beginner sock knitters and experienced sock knitters as well.

Two sizes - small (64 stitches) and large (72 stitches) although with a four stitch pattern repeat it is easily adjustable to other sizes.

Pattern includes both fully written and charted instructions.
