Product Details
Every year on March 21, people all over the world gather to celebrate World Down Syndrome day. The ‘Lots of Socks’ initiative was started as a fun way to help create support and awareness all over the world, encouraging people to wear brightly colored and unique socks. Why socks? Because socks look like chromosomes and people with Down Syndrome have an extra chromosome. These socks are intended to get sock knitters involved with a great cause. Using only one color at a time, slipped stitches create a checkerboard effect down the leg of the sock. By pairing a self-striping yarn with a solid, there are only two yarns needed. Brightly colored and unique, this design will be appropriate for sock knitters of all skill levels and create attention for a very worthy cause. Be sure to use the #lotsofsocks hashtag when posting online!
