Notes

these really should have been done months ago! but pregnancy got in the way. KP would like his socks to be taller next time and i guess i’ll oblige :)

the STR mediumweight is perfect for man-socks. i knit these on 3.0mm needles with only 52 stitches around. much nicer than knitting with fingering weight (where there would have been at least 72 stitches for these large feet.)

basic toe-up pattern, linen stitch, short-row heel, and twisted 1x1 rib cuff with sewn bind-off.
