Notes

Creating sock for display to show off yarn, so there will be only one. No mods. Here are the specifics:

  • Size: Large, 80 sts cast on.
  • Cast on: Long tail.
  • Cuff: 10-rows + 1 transition row sl 1, p1 repeat.
  • Note: Rows 8 & 9 are missing in the Large Lace Pattern chart. The rows are misnumbered. The chart itself is correct and has 13 rows in total (not 15).
  • Leg: 5 repeats of Large Lace Pattern
  • Heel flap: 20 rows
  • Foot: 5 repeats of Large Lace Pattern

And then I realized this sock size is large indeed. Man size, I would say, which would explain why there aren’t many projects in this size. What was I thinking? I stop knitting the foot so it fits a women’s size 10/11 foot and begin the toe.

  • Toe: Decreased to 44 sts (rather than 16), so now it has a very square toe. But I’m so impressed with my Kitchener stitch. My technique has definitely improved!
