Notes

Suberb pattern for a cool pair of thick socks.

BF’s customisation (thight fight):

CO: 44 stitches in german twisted cast-on
cuff: 14 rnds (2 1/4”) - too much -
leg (in pattern):18 rnds (2 1/4”)
total leg: 32 rnds (4 1/2”) - bf likes short socks
heel flap: 22 rnds (2 1/2”) - bf has a high instep & the 18 rnds (2”) in pattern woudn’t have been enough
picked-up stitches: 14 (instead of 11)
gusset dec: 16 rnds (2”) instead of 10 in pattern
foot: 44 rnds
toe decreases: 14 rnds as in pattern (2”)

pair = 125gr
