CHARTS:
These charts are worked using slipped stitches. Unlike Fair Isle, there are no color changes during the round, no threads floating at the back of the work – or at the inside of the sock. Each round is worked completely in one color. At the end of each round, pick up the next color from underneath the color you just worked with to create a jogless striping (do not twist yarns).
