Notes

Started a single sock then decided to change to Knit two at a time… otherwise I’d never get the second one done.

Cast on 30, ( 15 & 15 ) knit pattern to 6 1/4”, start gussets

I picked up 2 extra stitches at the top of the heel, then knit them together on next row to preven any little hole from developing.

This is the first time using this yarn. Picked it for a summer sock. I’m not sure if it will make me sweat or not… testing!

Warning: I played Yarn Chicken! ended very close with about a Yard of Yarn left!!!

The yarn is soft and quite stretchy. Time will tell if I should have made them smaller…
