Notes

So I measured my son’s big ol’ feet and it turns out they are only about 1/2 to 3/4 inches bigger than mine. So I cast on only 56 since the yarn is rather stretchy. I hope these fit!

Started these in 8-2015 when son was leaving for college. He’s finishing his freshman year in 2,weeks I guess these will be his sophomore socks. Doh!
