This is a simple color work patterned sock. It would be great for using up leftover sock yarn, which--to be honest--most Crazy Sock Knitters have a lot of! It would also be a fun way to use mini-skein sets.

For most foot sizes, you will need 50 gms of your MC for the foot, and 50-75 yds each of four contrast colors.

(Sample used Knit Picks Felici and four shades of Knit Picks Stroll.)

Other options for working with leftovers would be to use more contrast colors for the heels and toes, working stripes of different leftovers on the feet, or working the color pattern on the feet too.

This pattern is written for four sizes: 56 (64, 72, 80) sts.

Have fun, and go color crazy!!
