Notes

Apr 26, 2011: holy shit. i’m finally done! knitted elastic into the cuff and used jeny’s surprisingly stretchy bind off. even though the edge does fan out a little, this bind off really does allow the cuff to stretch out enough around my leg.

lastly, i don’t really like how the variegated colors look. would have been better off using a solid color so it could show off the stitch pattern much better.


Oct 12, 2009: Almost done with these. Only have one “skein” of elastic. I think I need to buy another so I can do both of the cuffs at once, otherwise, I’ll never finish them!


Sept 21, 2009: Now that I’m done with the Leaf Lace Shawl, I’ve picked these socks back up. Now must research how to properly add the elastic to the cuff.


June 2, 2009: I have kind of abandoned this project even though I’m so close to being done!

I actually bought some elastic string so I can either knit it into the cuff or weave in later.


Started up with a Turkish cast-on, two socks at a time on one circular.
