Pop-Eye Socks
This is a fun, eye-catching color work sock. With the colors I chose to knit it with, the pattern seems to really pop. Any highly contrasting two yarns should do likewise.
The pattern is written for three sizes. As usual, this can be modified slightly by using heavier/lighter fingering weight yarn and/or changing needle sizes slightly.
If you choose to knit a fraternal pair of socks (with the colors reversed), you should be able to knit a pair with one 50-gm ball of fingering weight yarn in each color, unless you have very large feet.
If you choose to knit identical socks, you will probably need 100 gms of the main color and about 25-30 gms for the contrast color. Again, if you have large feet, you may need more than 100 gms of the MC.
