Notes

Fine tuning my freeform short-row swatch into a pair of socks mens size large for Father’s Day. Of course they won’t be delivered until August, but they won’t be needed until September, so an email pic should work to say Happy Father’s Day.

Will be all two needle knitting, no rounds. Starting a Cuff at the back of foot, then casting on for top of foot. Will do a short row heel, stockinette foot, then short row toe.

Sock One finished and I am in love!!!!! It fits me loosely, DH with some give, so hopefully will fit Dad too.

I love the way the Kauni changes across the cuff. Can’t wait to get some more of this yarn!. It is the first thing I have made with this skein that I like. It may take the contrast color to bring out the best in the Kauni.
