Your challenge

Create a design or pattern for socks

Our feet sure work hard for us. Without ‘em, we wouldn’t be able to do jumping jacks, play soccer, stand in line for hot dogs, or reach that jar of pickles on the top shelf.

Use your hands to show your feet you appreciate them. Design whatever you think would make your feet do a jig. Bold graphics or cool patterns welcome! Designs may have a maximum of 6 colors and the left and right sock must mirror each other.

Go on and hop to it.
