Notes

Pattern

I didn’t follow the pattern closely, I mainly used it for the ruffle and the scalloped edge. It doesn’t contain instructions for most of the sock, so I used what I remembered from the Hibernal socks I’d already made.

Ruffle

I cast on with a 1-row tubular cast-on, but I later realized I could have cast on in a much simpler way and it would have looked fine. It made the ruffle pretty voluminous, though. I also used central double decrease instead of k3tog on the ruffle and like how it looks.

Cuff

I was confused that the cuff called for stockinette on the outside, and 1x1 rib on the inside, but I did it and it seems fine.

FO

The finished socks look like they’re potentially going to be too big around the ankle and heel, but I don’t know that yet.
