Every knitter has a little stash of sock yarn treasures: the minis, the leftovers, the too-pretty-to-throw-away bits. The Enschede Socks pattern was made for them.
Inspired by the charm of mixing colors and the joy of making something new from what you already have, these socks are a fun, stash-busting adventure. Worked top-down with a boomerang heel, they feature gentle increases and decreases around the heel for a perfect, cozy fit. The simple colorwork pattern is easy to memorize, making it a relaxing yet rewarding knit.
All you need is about 75 grams of fingering-weight yarn in three colors (25 g each). Perfect for using up leftovers or creating your own custom gradient with mini skeins.
Available in four sizes (60, 64, 68, 72 sts), this pattern is designed for knitters who love comfort, color, and creativity in every stitch.
