Note: To make the socks smaller use 2.25 mm needles and a gauge of 30 stitches/40 rounds= 4”/10 cm

Amish colors and stranded patterns give these socks a lift. Directions included to make shorter socks as well as knee socks. You will need smaller amounts (leftovers) of three or four colors as well as the main color (the amount of yardage indicated).
