Rainbow Sherbet Socks - Knitting Pattern PDF

This is one of a set of very easy sock patterns part of the Vanilla Sundae Sock Set - also available together in an ebook for the best total price and bonus vanilla sock guide.

The color of the yarn, plus the textured lines on the top of the foot, made me think of the waves of color running through a swirl of rainbow sherbet! These socks feature an easy panel texture on the front of the foot and leg, which will work especially well for a variegated, as shown here, or semisolid yarn. Includes 3 child sizes and 4 adult sizes. 

Please note this is to purchase the pattern to knit the socks, not the socks themselves. Due to the nature of digital downloads, I cannot offer refunds.

This pattern is also on Ravelry. Pattern has been tech edited and test knitted - thank you to my tech editor, Heather Storta, and my test knitters! Thank you to Bella @ www.bee-creates.com for the wonderful illustrations!

Construction

Socks are knit toe-up. After the toe increases are done, a texture pattern is worked on the top of the foot with stockinette stitch on the bottom, until the heel is reached. The heel is worked with a Fleegle Heel. Once the heel is done, the texture pattern is resumed up the front of the leg, and is finished with a 1x1 ribbed cuff. You can optionally use a CC for the cuff as shown in the sample.
