This pattern was originally written for adults in two sizes M[L]. I have now added children sizes! The socks are knit top-down in the round. The leg of the sock is mostly knit in stranded colorwork, while the rest of the sock is knit in one color. These socks where designed to have a bit more ease than usual, for lounging at home without shoes. Since the adult size is worked with worsted yarn you will have a pair of knit socks in no time.
