Why is it called Lots of Socks? 

Do you know about the #lotsofsocks initiative? Those with Down syndrome have a 3rd copy of chromosome 21, so on 3/21 (March 21) the global community celebrates World Down Syndrome Day. The idea behind #lotsofsocks is that everyone wears two different colorful socks to highlight the uniqueness of these individuals and show their support for the Down syndrome community. This  KAL was designed to create LOTS of socks that will also generate support and awareness for a great cause!

Please note: the pattern is NOT included and can be purchased separately here from Paper Daisy Creations Ravelry store (pattern will be released in February).
