Notes

For the Yarnivorous KAL, Jan/Feb 2013.

I got to the gussets on the first sock using Valley Yarns Huntington and decided it was just TOO SPLITTY for these cables. I started again with my own Noodle Sock yarn on January 9th, which was a much better choice.

All in all I knit 3 legs, 3 heels, 2.5 gussets, 2 feet and 4 toes (long story) so I’m super done with these socks, but I do love how they look :)
