Notes

Sock 1 bound off at 11:30PM on 2/1. I finish a sock in ONE DAY!!!! I am brilliant! I am fast. I am important (OK, time to put “The Help” down).

Apparently, I can finish these pretty fast. I turned the heel last night (or more appropriately, I grafted the heel last night) and I’m not looking at sliding up the leg. The skein feels pretty light and I have to admit, the Kroy socks might get added to my list of approved sock yarns. It’s thicker than my usual sock yarn (feels more sportweight to me) and on a size 1 needle, knits up pretty stiff and tight, which is how I like my socks to feel

I changed my mind. I want to see how fast I can finish these. I will, however, cast on for my official SKA feb challenge scks at midnite.

Only if I have time because it will not count for SKA challenges.
