Notes

Had some yarn left over from my tube socks, so thought I would do a toe-up sock & see how far it would go! Decided to do 2AAT using 2 circulars with 2.5mm on top & 2.25 for foot & heel. Frankensteined it up with toes using Sundara & decided to try Fish Lips Kiss heel for the 1st time (with some apprehension) using Skein BFL. Did read the forum thread #1331 in FLK HEEL - questions & answers which helped when to change heel color back to MC. This heel worked fantastic!!
Also decided to do stripes in opposite way, so I didn’t have to worry about them to match!! Did 2x2 twisted rib for cuff. Had plenty of yarn left to use some towards my sock blanket, so very happy overall with how much I got out of this yarn. Wish I could get some more!!
