I divided the ball evenly by weight into two cakes. I didn't even attempt to make each cake start with the same color.

Notes

I didn’t even try to make the socks match

I cast on 72 stitches using German Twisted Cast On

Cuff and leg:
I knit 16 rounds of 2x2 rib for the cuff, then started working garter rib for the leg:
Rnd 1: knit
Rnd 2: p1, (k2, p2) 12X, k2, p1

Heel:
Fish Lips Kiss

Round toe

This yarn knits up soft and squishy, especially in the garter rib sections. It’s pretty splitty yarn, which makes it a bit of a pain to knit, but it’s worth it.
