The top-down pattern is written in four sizes for the Magic Loop method. Pattern can be converted to two circulars with no modifications. Suggested caston numbers are 56, 64, 72, and 80 with a gauge of 9 stitches per inch.

The Pink Ribbon Lace pattern begins at the top and goes down each side of the leg, seperating at the gusset, carrying the ribbons to meet in the front and the back. The Pink Ribbon Lace pattern continues down the front of the foot and at the heel concludes with a cable twist. The foot and leg can be adjusted in length by adding or subtracting repeats from the pattern, or adding stockinette at the end of the foot.

Complete instructions are given in the pattern for heel flap construction, turning the heel, and completing the toe. Alternate toe construction can be substituted for what is given in the pattern.
