Doodles

Doodles is the first pattern of the Sock Doodles series. Doodling with leftover sock yarns and combining mosaic patterns is an easy and fun way to create colourful, one-of-a-kind socks. Use just two colours or four or even six, work more or less mosaic pattern repeats, all is up to you!

Mosaic knitting is one of the easiest colourwork techniques. The mosaic pattern knits up using just one of the yarns at a time. Work two rounds in one colour, then two rounds in another colour. Knitting involves slipping the stitches in a round that should be the "other" colour.

Socks are worked from toe up with short row heels. Size refers to sock foot circumference. Socks can be worked on double pointed needles, two circular needles or on other types of needles convenient for the knitter for knitting small circumferences in the round. The pattern uses metric and imperial systems. The pattern is charted.
