Notes

First time using 1x1 tubular cast on (as shown here: https://www.masondixonknitting.com/boost-your-knitting-tu...

Seems a bit tight (even with 60 st, my regular CO with long-tail). Not sure how this can be given that I’ve gone with such a stretchy CO.

If using this cast on again (and I’d try it one more time) - cast on 64 st for rib (and decrease 8 st in the first stockinette round after the rib) to get to 56st tube. Also, go up to a US 1 for socks for the next while. The US 0 is producing a slightly tight end result, esp in rib.
