Pink Ribbon SocksA2a
by Laura Spradlin

For every kit sold $20 is donated to the Susan G Komen foundation.

Techniques used in the pattern:
K2P2 ribbing
K2tog
P2tog
SSK
SSP
Cable 3x3
Basic sock construction (wedge toe, heel flap, picking up stitches along heel flap, gusset decreases)
Following a lace chart
Magic Loop knitting

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.

The yarn included in this kit is a beautiful soft hand painted colorway that features random ribbons of subtle pink variegations throughout the skein, showing off the lace and cables without overpowering the pattern.

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.

If you have additional questions about the kit, pattern, yarn, purchasing or ordering, please email me at sugarbunnyblvd@aol.com or pinkribbon@sugarbunnyblvd.com.
