Hot Chocolate

On a chilly winter day, nothing says “cozy” quite like a hot chocolate and woollen socks. Layers of warm milk and decadent cocoa come to life in these long stripey socks. There’s only one important decision to make - whipped cream or marshmallows? **Sizes** There are four sizes in the pattern: 1 (18cm / 7.25" foot circumference), 2 (20cm / 8" foot circumference), 3 (22.5cm / 9" foot circumference), and 4 (25cm / 10" foot circumference). Note that the sizes listed are measured around the sock, so find your size by measuring your foot and then subtracting 10%. **Yarn and Yardage** Two contrasting colours are needed for this pattern. 300 - 425 yards are need in total: 160 - 225 yards for C1, 140 - 200 yards for C2. **Notions** Knitting needles (DPNs or circulars), stitch markers, darning needle, and sock blockers. **Techniques** This pattern is suitable for beginner sock knitters who are familiar with cuff down, in the round, heel flap and gusset sock construction. Colours can be carried up in the round, but this is optional. > [Join my newsletter][1] to hear about new patterns and blog posts, and get access to exclusive discounts!
