Notes

June 15, 2024: Started this pair a couple of days ago. GTCO 64sts with 2.75mm needles. Knit the body with US 2.25mm magic loop.

Cuff: 15 rows of 2x2 rib followed by a row of stockinette in contrast color.
Leg: 66 rows after cuff. Cuff + Leg = 82rows.
FLK heels in contrast color worked on the first 32sts. I reinforced the heel with jawoll reinforcement thread.

Rounded Barn Toe: Beginning with 32 sts on each needle (magic loop). Decrease 4 sts every alternate round until half the sts remain (16 on each needle). Then decrease every round until half the sts remain (8 on each needle).

Measurements after blocking:
Cuff: 3cm
Width at cuff: 9cm
Leg with cuff, before heel: 17.5cm
Back of heel to beginning of toe: 17.5cm
Back of heel to end of toe: 22.7cm
Width at foot section: 8.7cm
