The Dizzy Diamonds Socks are a fun, slightly-eye-bending way to jazz up an otherwise-vanilla pair of socks! Grab the brightest contrast mini you can find and splash that colour on the leg of the sock for an exciting burst of graphic colourwork. Why make another pair of vanilla socks when you can make something that makes people say “WOW!”

Pattern Description

These socks have a plain foot and a stranded-colourwork leg. They have a contrast afterthought heel (with optional afterthought mini-gussets that offer a roomier heel fit) that allows you to use self-striping, self-patterning, or pooling yarn continuously with no breaks. The pattern is written for four sizes and they are completely adjustable to fit any foot length. Corresponding written instructions are provided for the chart, and video resources are linked for many of the required techniques.
