Cast-on this dreary afternoon. Love NOT using DPNS!

Haha even flat, the w&t heel is giving me a challenge. Third time is the charm. I’m sure the second heel will be faster. Thank goodness for YouTube video (https://youtu.be/WNdZOhYF5V0), to demonstrate the written pattern.

First sock is off the needles! Second should be a breeze. I’ll seam both at the same time.

Second sock going gangbusters, should be seaming both by Monday at the latest.

Redid the bindoff with crochet hook size D (https://www.facebook.com/220867454647187/posts/2017571471...) to be looser. Invisible seamed with needle. Fits my 39 foot perfectly. The yarn is light but super cozy. Just in time for the wintery drizzle snow ice mixture!
