Notes

Sadly, I shall not be making the second sock. I’ll never wear them - the fit is not at all right. It’s the first toe-up sock that I’ve managed to get on over my instep but it is not roomy enough for comfort

Will frog and reuse the yarn.

A fun project that I enjoyed knitting but just not a goer for me.

2nd March - Argh! Couldn’t hold off casting on any longer!

4th March - at the inner ankle

NB - Magic looping negates the need for EOR and COR markers - only the ankle/heel markers are needed.

NB - MOST IMPORTANT - I was lucky to be using 2 by 50g balls of yarn when it came to the Origami Moment and could access a length of yarn to Kitchener with quite easily. IT IS PRUDENT TO SET ASIDE AT THE BEGINNING A LENGTH OF YARN, AROUND A METRE, to have free and ready when you need to graft the heel ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE USING A SINGLE 100g BALL!
