Notes

02-16-2013: Saved Kitchener stitch steps in my cell phone notes this afternoon. Got stuck in town today ready to bind off the toe of the sock but couldn’t remember how! Grrrr! Finished now and CO for Chamonix 2nd sleeve then SKYP second sock. The yarn feels crisp but not itchy- hoping it will soften up a bit with blocking, though not crucial for wearability. Great pattern. Fantastic fit. Will most definitely be making more in different colors.

01-18-2013: A couple rounds of the pattern and then it was super easy. Not as boring as k2p2 rib but still stretchy. Loving the SKYP. :) Think these are going to turn out well.

Really like the yarn. Don’t know that the aloe is noticeable really (am I supposed to feel something ‘special’?), but the colors are nice and it doesn’t split too easily.

In sock mode but didn’t have 2 of the right size circs to start the all-the-math toe-up socks so started with the cuff on dpn’s.
