Notes

I am calling these Master Stripe because this project will have all of the details for the pattern specs that I use when making Derek a pair of striped work socks. I will also be weighing the stripes and such so that I can estimate how many stripes I can get out of my leftovers.

First stripe: 5 rounds plus cast-on, including round on the needles.
Add’l stripes: 6 rounds including round on the needles.
Leg: 45 rounds
Heel flap: EOP worked on 28 sts for 14 sl st rows.
Heel turn: Sl1, p15, p2tog, p1, turn; sl1, k5, ssk, k1, turn.

Stripe yarn: approx. 16g for both socks.
