Notes

The husband wants some socks like these (well, not the pink) but these are mine, dammit! My last three projects have been for other people. These are for me!

The yarn is seriously awesome. I feel like a confetti cake with pink icing has been detonated. Fabulous.

CO today. Using Dan’s anatomical toe pattern because that seems to fit me well, too, and is a bit less complex as far as which side increases when. Ended up with 66 sts. First full round of 66 will start the pattern.

A little more than halfway up the leg, I have decided to switch to a larger needle size in hopes of making this sock taller than my normal because this pattern and yarn are so fantastic, I want as much sock as possible.

These are completed and I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!!! The pattern is fabulous for the confetti craziness of this yarn (which is BEAUTIFUL) and the yarn feels so luxurious, especially after using lots of more workhorse sock yarns. LOVE THESE.
