Notes

December 2019
I have been wearing these non-stop and already had to mend a small hole in the base of the heel.

Notes
I really love how these turned out! The lace pattern didn’t turn out centered in the foot though. If I were to knit these again, I would adjust the position of the heel flap so that there is a purl stitch in either side of it. In my version, there’s no purl stitch between the last two ktbl stitches and the usual knit stitches of the foot, which makes the pattern disappear a bit (see pictures 2 and 3).

Totally in love with the yarn, the fabric is squishy and soft but still wooly. Haven’t tried them in the cold yet, but I’m really looking forward to wearing these!

No mods, cuff: 17 rows.
