Notes

Pair No 9 for 2016

I used Intwined Studio software to create a chart from a line-by-line pattern from Barbara Walker.

It’s a 10 stitch repeat. I use a “DW” (double wrap) on the stitches that will be slipped on the next two rows.

I note that the stocking stitch soles were slightly larger than the pattern upper foot and I might consider using a linen stitch on the sole which might help keep the sole and upper the same size.

I used Prism Delicate 2ply for strength in the toes and heels and this means it was easier to “adapt” the increase from 60sts on the foot to 70 sts for the leg.
