Notes

Turkish Cast on, great tutorial:

Size 2: 60 sts with 2.25 mm needles.

My socks weigh 100 grams total. The yardage I gave upon is estimated due to working with scraps.

Mods:

  • six colors,
  • omitted last 2 leg increases
  • 2” cuff
  • regular bind off

I used backloop method for m1 left and right. Too much fuss with make one stated in pattern, also it looks neat with my method and my style of knitting.

I use scraps from my previous projects:

1 Phil Folk 50 color 21 jeans
2 Araucania Ranco Solid blue
3 Twist Dream by e-dziewiarka.pl color 11
80% wełna merino, 20% poliamid
4 Wolff&Schafe Paw color Unicorns Are Totally Real
5 Artesano Definition color handdyed by me
6 Snailyarn Sock mini color OOAK
