The yarn I used in the fingering weight men’s socks is Knit Picks Stroll Tonal. The gray yarn used at the toes and heels is some unknown leftover yarn.

The yarn I used in the men’s DK weight socks is Knit Picks Hawthorne Sport, in color Irvington.

The 9” circular needles I used for demonstration are Knitter’s Pride Platinas.

The yarn I use in my demo sock is Knit Picks Hawthorne Sport – I think Knit Picks has recently discontinued that yarn.
