Notes

Note for SKA mods - I set up the project the day before CO date, did not CO until Dec 1!

I did not have the Zauberball scraps I thought - turned them into toobz for kits.

Using leftover Austermann Step from my hillside sock project for toes/tops and an odd skein of SG sock.

2025.12.29

Few rows of toe left on the first sock, and the cuff and first row of leg done on the second. turning out a little wonky, the mitre math might have to be reworked for my foot shape more, but the concept is fun. Pretty much the “you can put the gussets anywhere” Cat Bordhi thing.

2026.01.01

Didn’t get it done before 2026, but I have 2/3 of one foot left and the straight up knit parts go fairly quick with this yarn/gauge.
