Notes

Most of the foot is 60 stitches, but it seems a bit snug. Maybe next time try 64 or 66.

This sock is easy enough, but super boring to knit once into the leg -- finishing it was forever-taking. Definitely need something more interesting the next time.

HAAAAATED knitting these socks. Not only was the pattern slow-going, and the yarn itchy (and super tangled inside the ball), but it was a really boring knit. That said, I love the finished socks so am happy I stuck with it.
