Notes

A very fun pattern to knit. I don’t feel the texture of the pattern when I wear them either because the Koigu is so soft. It does leave weird impression in my feet by the end of the day though.

Even though these are super comfy, I don’t think the Koigu will last very long. It’s 100% merino and not very tightly spun.

Update:
Three months after completion they are holding up better than I thought. The heels are getting pretty fuzzy, but no signs of weak spots or wearing through.
