Notes

Was totally not loving knitting these top-down, so I ripped to re-do…and I like them much better.

Pretty plain, with a little ribbing at the sides…these will be winter socks for sure!

So, with fingering weight yarn, I know that I need more than 100 grams for Snake socks. I decided to do black heels and toes on these, in stroll…so far, so good!

Cast on 10+10, inc to 68 in black.
After increases, 70 rows on foot.
Short Row heel in black 34-12-34.
78 rows leg + 12 rows k2, p2 in black.
