Do you love colourful patterned Christmas Stockings but are intimidated by stranded colourwork? Mosaic knitting is the solution! It is a fun and easy way of knitting with two colours to create a colourwork pattern which looks much more complicated than it is. The beauty of mosaic knitting is that it only uses one of the yarns at a time, while the other waits at the beginning of the round.
The eBook contains four mosaic knit Christmas Stocking patterns. Different sections of the patterns (cuffs, legs and feet) can be mixed and matched.
The socks are worked from the cuff down with short row heels and a round toe.
The samples were knit in Stylecraft Special Aran (colourways White, Lipstick and Teal), 100% acrylic.
