Begin with 2x2 ribbing for the Cuff, then knit a garter stitch rectangle flat for the front leg and top foot. The back leg is then knitted in stockinette stitch with thin stripes, resulting in a staggered geometric striping pattern on the leg. The heel flap is knitted in garter stitch followed by the gusset and sole. The striped sections are knitted together for a seamless modular construction. Combine one solid skein of sock yarn with a self-striping main color like Schoppel Wolle Zauberball Crazy to create these stripe-tastic color changing socks!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll rights reserved.

Hold two colors together and change one strand at a time. Both yarns can change at any time as your colors overlap and mix together. For example, use A+B. Drop A. Use B+C. Drop B. Use C+D. Drop C, etc… This Fading Marl will help blend colors together for smooth transitions. To make the most subtle color melting effects, you will need several shades of a color and fade them from light to dark. Using lots of speckled and variegated yarns in a variety of shades from light to dark will help create a more mixed and blended effect. It’s up to you to decide how many rounds to knit with each color combination. \u003cbr\u003eChanging colors every 2 – 6 rounds produces quick color progressions. \u003cbr\u003eChanging colors every 6–12 rows will create slower color changes and a less blended effect. The sample socks changed one strand of yarn every 2 – 6 rounds during the colorful moss stitch section.
