Notes

Feb ‘10 Cast on while working on my “encore” white socks. Decided to try four at a time instead of two at a time.

April 12 ‘10 Turned both heels.

April 14 ‘10 Began to pick up gussets on one sock.

April 15 ‘10 Finished heel on first sock. Picked up gussets on second sock. Finished heel on second sock.

April 17 ‘10 Finished instep on first sock. Started instep on second sock.

April 20 ‘10 Finished instep on second sock.

May 8 ‘10 Had trouble with length. Finished both socks. Yeah!

May 11 ‘10 Trying these on for the first time. The ’Fun’ yarn is really soft, comfortable even before washing. I’m going to guess it’s going to be breathable too, even with the smaller needle size on this pair. We’ll see at the end of the day. Yeah! I have black socks now!
