If you’re new to socks or colourwork - or colourwork socks - start here! These striped socks have mellow colourwork and plenty of one-colour rounds to give you a bit of a break. Plus - stripes! Almost like a tiger!

Stripeycat is part of Choose Your Own Catsock Adventure 2 - a mix-n-match collection of eight cat-scattered sock patterns with lots of heel and toe options to help you get your perfect - and perfectly-fitting - catsocks.

The socks are all worked top-down, and come with instructions for short-row, flap and gusset and afterthought heels, and wedge, round and colourwork toes.

There are five sizes, from 14.75cm to 26.5cm foot circumferences, with guidance for getting the perfect fit and for making longer and shorter socks.
