Notes

My first pair of colorwork socks. The feet are a bit tight, because I still had to learn that colorwork is less stretchy than stockinette.

19-05-2020

I haven’t mastered knitting with the thimble yet, so I hold one color in each hand.

Green is the dominant color, held in the left hand.

Start heel after 6th arrow, starting mini gusset after the 4th arrow.

I didn’t realize that the gauge in stranded knitting is different than in stockinette, so the feet are a bit tight.
