Notes

Pair four in my yearly sock challenge of a pair a month. My overall aim with the project is to undertake either something new or challenging with each pair.

For April I picked “Primrose” - which seemed a good choice of pattern for early spring.

As April is the month of April Fool I am challenging myself to complete these 2aat, magic loop

Truth is, each time I have tried to complete a pair of socks at the same time , I have given up and reached for my beloved 20 cm Addis. I am only going to improve and get faster at magic loop if I stick with it.

Term by Quince and Co is a very plump bouncy yarn- I like it very much. As Oyster is a very light colourway, the sheen from the silk is very subtle.

The invisible bind off is a new technique to me.
