Did Fish Lips Kiss heel
Only did Monkey pattern on front of leg

10/30/14 - Two and a half weeks for sock one, just over a day for sock two! Ha! I love these. I love toe up (even if I don’t always like toe up). Better pictures when I get home. eta: They’re a bit big, but not too bad. :)

10/29/14 - Almost done with the first sock. I’m only doing the monkey pattern on the front of the sock, for simplicity. I really like the FLK heel. They’re a bit long in the toe, but that heel is perfect. :)

10/10/14 - Started on 1.5s. Restarted on 1s. They were too big around. Did I used to knit a lot tighter or something? My first monkeys were on 2s and they’re fine. Weird. Anyhoo. Back on. Oh, also restarted with a bit more stitches for a slightly less pointy toe.
