Beginning at the cuff, these stripes get progressively thinner towards the fingers. The increasing pace of color changes gives the impression of gathering speed—you’ll be done in no time! For a solid-colored pair, just ignore any reference to MC and CC. Simple!

Our pattern also includes great tips on how to reduce the ‘jog’ in the change between stripe colors knit in the round.
