Notes

Alternative Slipped Soul
I want these socks to be snug for Jermaine. I love STR Heavyweight but it has a tendency to grow a little. So I made a pattern for the sole of the sock to hopefully decrease the likelihood of stretch:

Heel -
Row 1 - slip 1, knit 1
Row 2 & 4 - knit
Row 3 - knit 1, slip 1
