Notes

Knitting size medium, 72 sts cast on.

Held both yarns in the left, with red most left.
Flipped inside out after completing the cuff, so that the floats are outside.

Used Ladderback Jacquard stitch to hold floats while working dragon.

Knit left sock first.

I have finally admitted that the sock, though beautiful, is coming out too small. I am starting over. Sock 1 was up through row 16 completed on the sole and row 16 waiting to be started on the instep.

Casting on fresh with a size 2.5 (3mm) needles.
