Notes

It’s time for yet more Duffers, and again I’m trying a totally new yarn. The pair I’ve just finished using Killington and US 10 needles look like they may felt on the small side, so I’m going to knit a second pair (same size in the pattern) using K2 and a US 11 and hope at least one works out.

Well, the K2 turned out the right size, the Killington made lovely felt but became way too small. I need to find someone else to fit them. I sewed the leather bottoms on the day before Daddy’s birthday and mailed them the day of… so they won’t be TOO late!
