Notes

Test for Stella!

Great pattern…. my yarn choice did NOT do it justice! While pretty, the tonal color variations in the yarn colorway camouflage the beautiful lace. Also, I really should have used contrasting yarn for the heel and cuff. Finding the place to pick up stitches for the cuff is much more difficult when you haven’t changed your yarn color for the cuff. I was just being lazy and trying to use the yarn I had on hand!

I’m also unhappy with the yarn choice because it is not holding up very well. I have worn the socks only 4 times and they look about 100 years old already.
