Notes

I love ‘em. love ‘em, love ‘em. Totally. It took a while to find a colour combo I liked, and a false start on the toe to get the tension right, and again on the first heel .. but this is a wonderful sock pattern.

Ok cast on, at least 3 times, worked both the toes before deciding that the colours I chose were not the best . so a rethink and off again, with a neat mauve and a dusky navy..
heavily inspired by PStatqueen’s version - for those are the kind of sock knitting that inspires awe.

oh by the way .. I have no idea if I have enough for knee highs or not, i have one skein of each .. and have divided each in two .. I’ll see how far I get.
