Notes

I followed the pattern mostly… But I prefer to knit in the round so I did, I also used an alternate bind of (Jeny’s Surprisingly Stretchy bind off) and an alternate heel (the after thought heel).

I will not use the afterthought heel again because I don’t like kitchener stitch as much as I like knitting.

Anyway socks are done and I am please with the results.
