It fits! Now I just have to do it again…

Gauge on the 2.5 mm needle is 8sts and 8 rows to the inch.

Preparing to rip sob. It doesn’t fit me either. I’m recording my guage for future reference.

On the 3mm needle I got 7sts and 7 rows to the inch.

Jim’s knee to ankle measurement is 15.5”.


First pass on this sock is too big for Jim. It’s too long, and there’s plenty of easy in the calf, so I’m thinking that going down a needle size would help. But honestly, I don’t know if I’m ready go do it again right away. I’m putting it in my projects so I can remember what I did.

Sport weight wool from Elann, superwash with nylon. Now where’s that ball band?
