Finally trying this pattern, from Knitty (2009).

Two days in, sock 1 ready for ribbing, except…
This sock will not go on my foot. Like not even close. I am beyond disappointed…it was such a fun knit! Heck! I knit a sock in two days, I was so excited…but no bueno. So sad…

Feb 5, 2017 - Starting over. Trying again. It was so fun to knit…I hope the high instep fix works…
Popping the instructions here for an easier find for me:

Higher instep: In the first row of the “Inner ankle” section, increase six times on the sole of the foot. Explicitly: for the left sock, when 25 stitches remain in the round, work (k1, RLinc, k1) 6 times, k 10, SSK, k1. I bet you can generalize for the right sock. :) Then, when you work the first round of the “Heel shaping: Left sock only” section, k 13 instead of k 10. The Kitchener-stitched section in the Origami Moment will have 18 stitches instead of 15.

Feb 7, 2018 - 2nd try, still a no go. Grogging for something else…
