Notes

Using the reddish for the toes, heels, and cuffs; with the white multi and yellow-green as the other 2 colors.

I have a feeling these will come out larger than planned, as my gauge seems to be 8 sts per inch rather than 9, tho I’m getting 10 rows per inch. Will check after washing/blocking.

I’ve finished the foot, I think, and I’m ready to switch colors for the heel.crossed_fingerspartying_face

Heel is finished (took 2 tries - counting issues), and I’m on to the leg portion.partying_facesmileheartcrossed_fingers. First far sock heel!partying_faceheart

I’ve finished a sock!partying_facepartying_facesmile I had a small goof in the patterning on the leg portion, but I’m probably the only one who’ll notice (I hopecrossed_fingers).

Learned it only a new cast on, but a new bind off as well!

I just made the one sock in these yarns/colors for the test. I’ll be testing the V2 with different yarns/colors over the weekend partying_faceheart
