Helical Stripes

This video tutorial demonstrates how to do helical stripes, which is a jogless method for single-width stripes worked in the round.

Patterns that use this technique include:

Mesotherm Socks

Undulatus Socks

Front view of crossed legs wearing dark green and bright coral socks with vertical stripes that create an abstract surface texture.

Slip On Socks
