Notions: (2) stitch markers, crochet hook (F)
Note: In this pattern, I let the needles do the work. I didn’t increase in stitch quantity because I didn’t want any increase marks on such brightly colored yarn. I worked it from the top down because when I tried from the bottom up, I always over-increased and did not like the overall look and so I decided to make these from the top down.
I cannot stress this enough to mind your gauge. Your leg and foot circumference matters greatly in your fit so measure twice to knit once. Thankfully, this was a yarn that could take several (and I do mean several) do-overs.
While I am ROYGBIV obsessed, there is NO wrong color combination. Go wild. Be tame. Just enjoy the project.
