Notes

I’ve been meaning to remake these socks for sometime. I am not following the original pattern, although I do link since it was the inspiration. No intarsia in the round, no multiple sizes of needles. I am using the same yarns in the same colors as the first attempt.
I’m using my usual toe-up formula with short row heels. I charted the mosaic pattern. The original in Second Treasury of Knitting Patterns was written.

Crochet chain provisional cast on 36 stitches (72 total) in charcoal, joined & knit 2 rows of indigo and began the pattern.

These got put aside for holiday knitting. I finished the foot and short row heel.
2/19/2020
Out of hibernation.
Finished first sock and will start the second tomorrow.
2/23/2020
Finished the second sock. I’ll weave in all of the ends tomorrow morning, wash & block, and post some more photos.

The mosaic pattern is from Second Treasury of Knitting Patterns by Barbara Walker. Page 67 fretted mosaic, 6 stitch 20 row repeat.
