Notes

cast on 14+14 JMCO, then used Karendidit’s gusset toe increases to 60 sts. Will knit plain until 3” from cast on before starting the pattern.

Since I’m only using 60 sts, I’ll cut off 4 sts from the 60 st charts, 2 on toe and 2 on sole needle.

I came back to these socks and realized that the 2nd heel was totally messed up, so I had to rip back to before the heel and knit on from there. Since I didn’t knit any socks in 2020, my hands hurt a lot when I was trying to knit with 2.5mm needles again! After a long time (a whole week) I did finish the 2nd sock.
