It was fun looking through my sock knitting file folder and trying to imagine what each appropriate stitch pattern would look like in the various purple yarns waiting for the needles.

The pattern is written for 56 stitches with a multiple of seven stitches. I'm knitting it on 64 stitches with a multiple of eight stitches by introducing a purl column between the two knit columns. This modification turns it into a ribbing pattern for snugger, better fit. Details below.
