Note
Cuff down socks in stranded colorwork. The nature of this design means that there is a lot of scope for personalization. The design is set up so that you will end up with three different colors for cuffs, heels, and toes, as these are the parts of the sock that are not patterned. As the cuffs are the part you will see most of when you wear your socks inside shoes, you may want to pick your favorite color for these, or you may decide to go for one of the variations described at the end. Please make sure you have read the whole pattern including the suggestions at the end before you commence your first sock. Instructions are written for the Magic Loop technique.
