I’ve updated the pattern to clarify the casting on instructions

This will take about two skeins of red Lang Jawoll and one skein of the white Lang Jawoll. If you’re reinforcing the toe and heel of both socks with white nylon, you might need more than what they provide you with in the skein.

These socks are sure to be a home run with any loyal Red Sox fan! I tried to replicate the sock dimensions that were on the logo, adapting the sox to real people sizes as I went. They’re all fun and games, until you get to the double knitted cuff. Like any good BOSOX fan knows, all games are either won or lost in the 8th and 9th innings. Just like the BOSOX, if you have faith, and make sure you do all your superstitious rituals before starting, you too can be a World Series winner!
