3-needle-bind-off instead of Kitchener stitch

04-04-2021

yarn is really nice to work with and I love the colours

60% Alpaca
20% Merino
20% Nylon / Polyamide

Sock pattern
a bit fiddly with the colourwork and cables at the same time but I love the result.
It took me quite a while to finish - it wasn’t a “potato chippie” project - I had to concentrate.
