Notes

Man, am I in love with these socks. They came out so soft and lovely and every time I look at them I feel like someone gave me candy for no reason.

This is my first time doing a gusset sock where the decreases are on the bottom, rather than the sides, of the sock. I love the funky design on the sole!

Update: I was contacted by Knit One Crochet Too about using the photo of my socks on their Facebook page!
