DETAILS
At the top of the request list the past few years has been a DK weight version of my most popular sock pattern – DRK Everyday Socks. I decided to jazz them up by marling yarns, but this pattern works equally as well with 2 strands of fingering weight held together, or sub in a single strand of DK! These socks are knit from the toe up and sized for the whole family!
