DPN or circular needles can be used for this pattern. Recommended needles are US 3 (3.25mm) for the cuff and US 5 (3.75mm) for the leg, heel, foot, and toe.

YARN
Yarn amounts needed for the main color are 25, 50, 50, 50 (60, 60, 70, 80) grams of fingering weight yarn (230 yards / 210 meters per 50 grams).

For the alternating color(s) you will need 15, 20, 25, 25, (45, 50, 60, 65) grams of fingering weight yarn (230 yards / 210 meters per 50 grams).
