Notes

I did only 3 pattern repeats for the leg section of the sock. I didn’t want the sock to be too long.

The heel was very fun to do but am skeptical of how the heel will wear. Also not loving the 3-needle bindoff but will see how both these elements will wear.

I have quite a bit of yarn left over. The yarn is OK - the color is fantastically saturated and I love it for that. Also, quite amazing - for this saturated a color, when I washed these socks the color did not bleed at all.

Quick fun project and now for more socks.
