Discover the enchanting world of knitting with our Cariad Socks pattern! "Cariad," the Welsh term for sweetheart or darling, perfectly embodies the warmth and love represented in this delightful project. These Cariad Socks are intricately knitted from the cuff down, combining a captivating array of stripes, a simple slip-stitch pattern, and beautiful stranded color work, featuring a classic square heel and a comfortable wedge toe. This pattern is ideal for knitters looking to enhance their skills in two-color stranded knitting and working in the round, making it a perfect portable project. You'll experience quick, satisfying results, leaving you with cozy, warm, and stylish feet to enjoy.

For my sample pair, I chose luxurious, lovingly hand-dyed yarn from West Green Loft Yarns. However, feel free to explore your creativity by using any yarn you prefer or have in your stash. This project is also perfect for trying out mini hanks, allowing you to add a unique touch and experiment with color combinations. Whether you’re an experienced knitter or just starting out, the Cariad Socks offer an engaging and rewarding knitting experience.
