Notes

This pattern is so boring!! And I really don’t like the transition from the foot proper to the toe. The decreases should be in line with the border between upper and sole, not a bit above it. This way it looks amateurish. Next time I’m choosing sock patterns I must remember to check for things like that.

2014-05-09 Ran out of black yarn so until I’ve bought more I have legitimate reason to not work on these for a while, yay!

2014-05-23 Got more black yarn a while ago but didn’t start up again until today. Just the heel-turn and the foot left now.

2014-06-04 FINALLY FINISHED!!!!
