Swedish Ullared Socks
by Beth-Brown Reinsel
These black and red socks are reminiscent of the Swedish Ullared sweater of the late 1800's. The ribbing, heel, and toe are solid while the body of the sock is patterned in the Dotted Diamond motif. The gauge is 8 stitches/inch in 2 color stockinette stitch. Intermediate. Sized for small and large children, women, and men. Guernsey or firm sport weight yarn recommended. In red and black or navy, or your choice of colors.
