Designed to really show off that special skein of sock yarn, (such as the black light reactive yarn for my daughter to wear at laser tag). The feet are done first in a contrast yarn, then the legs are done in the special yarn to let it all shine. The star toe and steppin out heel are chosen to please her sensitive feet, with no seams or excess fabric. The cuff has eyelets for an optional ribbon.

Written for adult 8, 9, and 10 inch foot circumferences, with instructions to modify for a more muscular calf if necessary.
Uses US 1 (2.25mm) needles to a gauge of 8 Sts per inch. I suggest two at a time on 32” circular needles to be able to fully use all of your special yarn.

Yarn: a 100 gram colourful skein plus 195 (220, 248) yds or 178 (201, 227) m of a solid colour.
