CANDY SOCKS are quite easy to knit. They are knitted top down. The only decoration is the braid knitted from the cuff all way down through the heel flap. How to knit the braid is described both in text and a chart. The cuff is knitted with twisted rib and before the decreases start for the toe, they have purled stitches on the top of the socks.
