These socks are worked from the cuff down with an easy-to-memorize pattern on the front of the leg, with a Forethought Heel.

Self-striping yarn is one of my favorite yarns to work with. It’s so satisfying to see the colors change without having to weave in any ends. I wanted to incorporate texture while using stitches that would interact with the yarn. It’s enjoyable not just to watch the color changes, but also to see how the pattern creates waves. I hope you enjoy knitting with this yarn as much as I do. It was dyed especially for members of the Biscotte Mystery Sock Club of January 2026. - Andrea Yetman
