Notes

Everything I like in a sock pattern - toe up, Fleegle heel, some patterning. Cables and Lace for this pair. It’s also an UA pattern with me being the 5th knitter. I’m double dipping in Sock Knitters and Socks from Stash.

I created the chart in Stitchfiddle cuz the chart from ILK was garbage.

JMCO 16 st per needle, increase EOR until 32 sts per needle. Continue working til toe measures 3”, then start chart.
1-1/2” ribbing

Pattern name (and designer): Catching Butterflies socks by Penny Zukoski

The left foot was a bit tight, so I added 4 sts to the right sock. I hate this yarn - it splits and drops off the needles and is just hard to work with. It feels VERY light and thin, too. Maybe it will bloom when I wash the socks.
