The Flame socks are knit from the cuff down with an all-over print (created with passed stitches).
This design also has unusual toe construction with decreases on the sole only. The socks are finished off with a Kitchener graft.

You can choose to knit this design on your preferred needle type for small circumference (DPNs, ‘magic loop’, short circulars). I use ‘magic loop’ in my video-tutorials.
