Yarn Requirements: To create your Patagonian socks, you will need fingering weight yarn, made from 100% wool or a durable blend with nylon, which typically comes in 420 yards per 100 grams. For the main color (MC), you will require 140 (150, 165, 185) yards / 130 (140, 150, 170) meters. For the contrast color (CC), you will need 110 (120, 130, 150) yards / 100 (110, 120, 140) meters. Choose vibrant color combinations to elevate your knitting project and make each pair uniquely yours!

Construction Notes: The Patagonian socks are designed for a toe-up construction, allowing you to customize the leg length by adjusting the number of rows worked. This flexibility makes it easy to fit your personal style or preferences. The pattern utilizes the Afterthought heel method, which lets you add the heel after completing the body of the sock. However, feel free to explore alternative heel constructions that you enjoy, tailoring the pattern to suit your knitting skills and comfort level.
