3rd and 4th rows: * P 2, k 2, repeat from * across.

These 4 rows constitute the pattern. Repeat these 4 rows, decreasing 1 st on each row at one side only (this is tail), until 38 sts remain.

Work straight until piece measures 2¼ inches (5.72cm) in all.

Then starting at opposite end from tail, bind off 12 sts (thus shaping leg) and continue across.

Hereafter work in pattern, increasing 1 st at both ends of every 5th row, until there are 34 sts on needle, ending at leg side.

Then cast on 8 sts for other leg, and continue as before, but increasing 1 st at opposite side every 3rd row, until there are 49 sts on needle.

On next row, starting at leg side, bind off 8 sts every other row twice, 4 sts every other row 3 times, and 1 st every row for 3 times.

At the same time, increase 1 st at opposite side each row 12 times in all (30 sts on needle).
