Notes

This is my wild card for the SSSPSC May/June project.

7 Jun 2011: Cast on. Had a bit of trouble with the wraps but I think it’s ok.

8 Jun 2011: Done with one sock. I love the toe on this one! Found a helpful note on KatieK’s project page and she sent me more notes. My turns are not bumpy lumpy anymore! Whooo! But I think I will keep the first sock as it is and not bother frogging the entire thing. I will just have to tease the stitches and block them out well.

9 Jun 2011: Latest photo shows the difference between the wrapped short rows of the first sock and the Fleegle Short Row on the needles. Amazing!

10 Jun 2011: Done. Finished grafting the toe while chatting with Sarah, Monika and Hala. :)
