This is an 8 page pattern with 3 pages of colour charts.

A nod to the “folks” before. Many techniques are incorporated.
Beaded cast-on, fair-isle bands charted and with alternative charts in the pattern. Entrelac bands, garter stitch ridges, afterthought “strapped” heel, heel and toe are a mix of intarsia and fair-isle.

Different needle sizes to account for differences in tension when working the different techniques. Lots of alternative design ideas.

Heel and toe are charted in full colour, all directions are included for the techniques.

This pattern is for experienced knitters.
