Notes

Finished sock one! Made it based on size small but after seaming realized it wouldn’t go on my foot. Tore back and then knit the rest of the chart and that just lets me get my foot in. My tension is much too tight, so will try loosening up on the chart part of the second sock and see how that turns out. I could only do two inches on the leg before running out of yarn (I started with the toe) and I modified for a rounded toe. Love how the sock fits and it’s the perfect pattern for this yarn!

For the toe I knit 10 rounds in ribbing begore starting a rounded toe.

Done! You’d never know the skeins were the same dye lot! Yikes! Still, a fun pattern to try and never a dull moment, surprisingly quick. Love the results! Would definitely knit the size small for myself again and just loosen my guage, that worked much better.
