These socks are knit sideways, from a provisional cast-on at the inside of the leg, over the top of the foot, and around the heel. The sock is then grafted to form a tube, and stitches are picked up for the toe.

Separate instructions are given for the right and left socks, so the color gradient flows in opposite directions. The two socks are
mirror images of each other.
