Notes

It is all looking good, bluelicious yarn, lovely sock pattern, what more can I say!?!

11 May-
Cast on with 2.5mm needles.
Knitting 2nd size/60sts for foot but picked up 66sts for extra comfort along 49+1 chain edge stitches, by picking up and k3, yrn fwd and repeating to end.

8 repeats of pattern in all.
And at the beginning if all the RS rows where it says K3,
I changed it to K1tbl, K2 instead so as not to twist it.

heel flap~36 rows for my instep.
I have wide, small (UK 4 1/2) feet with a high-ish instep!!
picked up 18+1 along sides of heel flap.

Going down to 60sts through gusset decs.
Can just get over my heel comfortably, next size up would be way too big and baggy on ankle.

All my plans worked so the socks are good.

A fun knit, incorporating a bit of lace, cables and eyelets on the cuff to stocking stitch in the foot for a speedy finish. Yay!
Completed - 19 May 2014.

This well written pattern will become available for general release from May 2015
