How to Knit Argyle Knee-Socks
How do you knit argyle knee socks?
('Why argyle knee socks', 'Argyle is having a real moment alongside the wider dark-academia and preppy-revival trends, and a knee sock is a low-commitment way to try stranded colorwork without knitting a whole sweater.')
('Materials', 'DK weight yarn in two contrast colors (a dark base like navy plus a mustard or gold contrast), double-pointed needles or a long circular for magic loop, and a gauge swatch worked in the round before starting.')
('Construction overview', 'The sock is worked top-down: a ribbed cuff, then the argyle diamond chart worked in stranded intarsia over the leg, then a standard heel flap/turn and toe decrease.')
Key Takeaways
- Sizes S-XL with foot-length chart
