Online/Offline-socks

Online / Offline socks are snazzy but easy-to-knit basic socks with faded striping using six different colours. The socks have sturdy double folded cuffs for better fit with a simple hourglass / german short row heel. In this pattern we will show you how to knit the fade technique using one strand of yarn at a time and by the end of it you’ll be able to apply the technique to any knitting project. We also guide you with choosing the perfect colour combinations for your own fade. Share your fade by tagging dyecat STUDIO on Instagram @dyecatstudio and using hashtags #OnlineOfflineSocks and #OnlineOfflineSukat.
