Cabin Cove
Notes

Kit contains: 200 yards of black, 50 yards each of Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple and Pink.

The name of the socks comes from the phrase when referring to a mullet haircut: “business in the front, party in the back”. These socks are “business” if you wear them with slacks as what you’ll see is plain black.

However, when you’re ready to party, roll up your pants’ cuffs and kick off your shoes and the socks become “party”.

The pattern is just a basic sock design, colors were changed when I felt like it, and the African dancers come from the book “1000 Great Knitting Motifs” (page 240). The pink edge of the cuff: cast on twice as many stitches as you need, then on the first row, K2tog. all around.

All colors from the Moose Toes Sock kit were used, with plenty of the colors left over, and few yards of black remaining.
