1. With white, fasten in the 17th treble from back of leg, draw up a loop through each of 6 stitches, keeping all on needle; take up yarn and draw through 1st stitch, * again draw through 2, and repeat until all are worked off; now insert hook under the little upright bar formed by working off the last row, draw up a loop and repeat until you have again the number of loops on needle; continue until you have 9 rows of afghan-stitch.
Again using white, fasten at back of leg and make a double in each stitch of leg and around the instep; make 4 more rows of doubles, 1 in each stitch of preceding row, taking up both loops to avoid a rib, then 5 rows of pink in the same way, joining the last row as before directed. Finish with cord and tassels or ribbon, run in the 4th row of trebles around top of bootee.
