This pattern is perfect for using up leftover yarn in a striped design. The socks are worked from the cuff down, with a ribbed cuff for elasticity. The leg alternates between colors and textures, adding visual interest. The heel flap and gusset ensure a snug fit, and the rounded toe is finished seamlessly by grafting.
