CC yardage note:
The contrast colour yarn can be made up of one or many colours. You can knit with a single strand of CC, or for extra ‘pop’ you can:

  • hold the CC yarn doubled (we used this method for the samples) - this requires double the yardage.

  • use DK weight yarn held singly.

  • hold a strand of mohair lace held alongside the sock weight CC for an extra fluffy halo.
