I think I am good to go now sweat_smile July 30

August 11: Mistakes were made (as usual). The bind off on one sock ended with stitches still on the circular needle cord. I put in a stitch marker to hold them and plan to thread yarn through them to try to fix it. Today, I’ll knit the heels on the socks.

One done - the cast off isn’t quite stretchy enough - I did a modified Jeny’s Surprisingly Stretchy Bind Off: https://youtu.be/dcriIufuVcQ
I should have kept it surprisingly stretchy - I can still get the sock on though +1

August 13: Two Done!
