Notes

Test knitting Handu’s next sock yarn club, Ilu’s Beck pattern!

Sep 20th: Due some gauge issues, my sock will be a bit bigger than it should have been ( I was aiming at ~39) but Maijamirjami said it’s no problem since Laika promised to adopt these.

Sep 21st: Okay, it was going to too big even for Laika so frogfrogfrog all the way to the heel.

Oct 10th: I’m going to try again and take 2mm needles for the foot. Let’s see what happens. The texture is a bit loose with 2,5mm needles so 2mm sounds good. I would take 2,25mm but I’ve none free at the moment.

Oct 22nd: The first sock take 2 is done, now it fits well!
