PATTERN NOTES
The socks are knit from the cuff-down, in the round with a heel flap and gusset. Color changes in this pattern are achieved with slipped stitches. Only one color is used per round. Two strands of each color are held together as one throughout. In this pattern, work all slipped stitches purlwise with yarn held in back of work unless otherwise indicated.
