Notes

Bah. :( These grew a lot when I blocked them. Now they’re really baggy. I’m going to put them in time out and ignore them for awhile.

Used a KnitPicks sock blank that I dyed an orangey red, plus wee little leftover bits from my Kureyon Sock Arm Warmers. So much fun to watch the rainbow build up!

So the KnitPicks yarn is super soft! I’m excited about wearing these. They’re quite squooshy. Two at a time toe up on a 40” circular. 72 sts.

Using Forward Motion’s Toe Up Heel Flap Sock Formula just for kicks. It’s good to try new things.

I’m just going to keep knitting til I run out of the red… perhaps they’ll be knee socks?

March 9: This yarn will not diiiie! End, ball of yarn, END, I say!
