These socks feature four different doodle-inspired colourwork motifs — the spiral, the heart, the “super S”, and the 3-D box — each in their own bright colour. They have a rounded Chinstrap wedge short-row heel that is worked in the fifth contrast colour. Knit toe-up, the pattern is graded for three adult foot circumferences and the socks are adjustable in length. Corresponding written instructions are provided for the charts, and video resources are linked for all important techniques.

This pattern requires the knitter to be able to knit with two colours at once on a small circumference in the round (the pattern is method-neutral to suit your preferred sock-knitting technique — double-pointed needles, magic loop/one circular needle, two circular needles, short circular needle, etc. — and it is possible to work the socks two-at-a-time). It clearly explains all techniques for increases, decreases, and short rows. With assistance from the resources provided, it is accessible to an intermediate sock knitter who is still relatively new to stranded knitting.

These socks are designed for one Main Colour and a set of five Contrast Colours: one for the heel and four for the colourwork motifs. Make the second sock fraternal for a little extra doodle-improv flair!
