This pattern creates a beautiful warm cozy sock with all the squish and comfort of the delightful brioche texture. The socks can be knit in either one or two colors.

Step-by-step instructions are provided for each section of the sock. Video tutorial links are provided for the cast-on, bind-off, and brioche decreases. The pattern notes include tips on fit, tensioning in-the-round, and brioche in-the-round.

The socks are knit from the toe-up and in-the-round. The pattern uses a reverse Strong heel variation. The Strong heel is an attractive heel that gives plenty of room over the instep and is also really fun to work. There is no need to pick up stitches for this heel. The appendix includes additional heel decrease variations. I just couldn’t resist playing with possibilities for this heel!
