Inspired by the beauty and variety of this iron ore variant, Hematite can warm your feet at the office or on a hike through the woods. This two-color, mosaic-patterned sock is unisex and comes in three sizes.

Worked from the top down in silky soft Gloss Fingering, this is a deceptively simple pattern and can easily be sized up or down. Have fun with color choices, perhaps switching main and contrast colors or making the heels and toes a third color. The stitch pattern instructions are both written and charted.
