This is a PDF knitting pattern.
These top-down socks feature a fun droplet stitch technique, producing textured details along the leg and top foot of the sock. This technique is ideal for variegated yarns because it creates little bursts of color when you work the droplet stitch technique. Choose a fingering weight color pop for the cuff, heel, and toe to coordinate with your main color. This pattern is ideal for showcasing those colorful collectible single skeins of sock yarn. Cast on and let your yarn shine! -
