The beauty of traditional pinwheel quilts caught my eye as a sock-worthy, graphic pattern that would translate beautifully into stranded knitting. I was delighted to discover that the finished socks also resemble the fragmented beauty of stained glass windows! Knit cuff down, this design looks far more complicated than it is. The chart is easy to memorize, and the possibilities for color play are endless. Knit them in a palette of your favorite tones, as I did, or create a striking pair out of just two colors!

For example, if you measure 8.5” / 22 cm, do you knit the size M or the size L? The answer can be found in your gauge! If you are a tight knitter, go with the bigger size. If you are a loose knitter, go with the smaller size.* **GAUGE** 36 sts x 48 rows to 4” / 10 cm in st st and colorwork, after blocking. **MATERIALS** **Yarn** Lang Jawoll [75% wool, 25% nylon; 230 yards (210 meters) 50 g (1.7 oz) in the following colors: **MC:** 94 Pearl (43) 67 (86, 101, 126) yards / (39) 61 (79, 92, 115) meters **CC1:** 109 Pink: (29) 40 (52, 69, 84) yards / (26) 37 (48, 63, 77) meters **CC2:** 159 Orange: (19) 28 (41, 55, 70) yards / ( 17) 26 (37, 50, 64) meters **CC3:** 220 Something Blue: (11) 18 (29, 41, 53) yards / (10) 16 (27, 37, 48) meters **CC4:** 60 Crimson: (19) 28 (41, 55, 70) / (17) 26 (37, 50, 64) meters **CC5:** 385 Fluorescent Pink: (19) 28 (41, 55, 70) / (17) 26 (37, 50, 64) meters **CC6:** 288 Adriatic Sea: (12) 21 (32, 46, 63) yards / (11) 19 (29, 42, 58) meters **Needles** US size 1 (2.25 mm) US size 2 (2.75 mm) **Notions** Tapestry needle, stitch markers, snips, measuring tape [1]: https://shy-queen-11066.myflodesk.com/ev9st9kqal [2]: https://www.instagram.com/summer.lee.knits/ [3]: https://www.summerleedesignco.com [4]: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEKSmPjh7dggw7r4GVpmnHQ/videos
