Notes

Sort of modeled after Pom Pom Peds. Cast on 64 stitches. K1p1 rib for 6 rounds. K plain for 3 rounds. Start heel flap and follow Stephanie’s directions from there.

Dyed in gradient with pink lemonade and orange flavored Kool-aids in the microwave. I did it on a whim and it only took twelve minutes!

I took the pic while lying on my picnic table with my feet in the air. The 60 something good ol’ boy who lives behind me came out and yelled “Laura, what the hell are you doin’? And why did you paint your feet orange?” It took some explaining about knitting and ravelry, but I think he understands now that I’m not entirely crazy. Lol!
