Click for Detail	Rainbow Stripe - Fillet of Sole on Tiger Twist Make the coolest socks on the block! Start toe up or top down using a two at a time sock pattern, and experience morphing color stripes. The wicking and resist through the knit blank will result in a tweedy look with interesting color transitions. This method does cause color to wick more wanderingly and there may be some spots of color in the wrong place. It magically changes in the re-knitting and you will enjoy the interesting chaos. The second picture shows an example of one of these knit into a tube sock. Each Fillet is enough to knit a pair of socks with leftovers. Don't wanna knit 2 @ a time? Let me know at checkout and I can frog and ball this for you. 100% Superwash Merino Wool Nice tight bouncy twist makes stretchy and durable socks. ~420 yards, 4 ounces 7-8 stitches per 1" on # 2 needles Hand dyed with professional acid dyes Machine or hand wash COLD, dry flat. 2 in stock
