Tumbling Blocks Striped Socks
Tumbling Blocks Socks pattern plays with self-striping, fingering weight yarn and the end result is a sock with some pizazz! The easy-to-knit lace columns combined with stripes give the effect of blocks that are tumbling.
This pattern includes instructions for two sizes (Women’s small and medium), is knitted top down cuff to toe, features easy-to-knit lace columns, an optional fitted arch, staggered diamond eye of partridge heel and rounded toe.
I hope you will give the fitted arch a try….you will likely want to include them in all of your socks going forward!
