Notes

Mostly leftovers of Tough Love Sock, with a bit of others thrown in.

Lifted increases.

Mod: knitted a 6 stitch gusset and grafted for seamless join for crotch, 12 rows. Then will picked up 14 sts on either side of the gusset for the leg cast on sts. Thinking this will eliminate a seam in a rather sensitive area and create a little space.

92 sts for upper thigh, and decreases every 6th round.

Worked one extra repeat for hips and extra depth. First fit looks bang on, but certainly could have knitted longer waist band.

Knowing what I know now, I would knit a waaaay deeper waist and hip, like 3-5 inches deeper. I think I would keep decreasing every 6th round to the knee, then every 7th round.
