Pass and Review is a command given on the parade field during a change of command, in which the troops form up and march before the new commander to be inspected.

This beautiful sock combines the technique from the Fall In and adds a simple, but elegant design figure of the moss stitch, which looks like the grass of the parade field. It may require a little concentration at first, but the pattern is easy to memorize. The different textures are the highlight of the sock.

I would recommend tonal or semi-tonal yarn for this project. You can even use lightly variegated yarn. The goal is to let the moss stitch shine and highly variegated yarns tend to muddy the pattern.
