Notes

Sizing.
I knit the M size and the fit was perfect. In hindsight, I’d do a few more repeats of the RRST in the leg to make it a bit longer. I really love how it looks circling around the leg!

Yardage.
I used 8g of Melon (Pink) for the cuff; 4g of Kid You Not (Orange) for the toes; and 70g of Egg Yolk (Yellow) for the body. I’m a tight knitter, so always come way under yardage required.

Pattern Notes
The pattern is well written and there are extremely helpful and clear diagrams that detail how to do the textured ‘Rustling Reed Stitch“. A super fun knit!
