Notes

MC - Charcoal
CC1 - Black
CC2 - Kelly green
CC3 - Neon green

CO 60 st

Leg:
20R 2x2 rib MC
11R MC
5R CC2
5R CC3
5R CC2
25R MC (6” leg)

FLK heel - 11 / 8 / 11 - CC1 or CC2 (probably do one heel out of each to maximize yardage

Foot: Knit foot to 5.75” before starting the toe decreases

Work ~64R MC (5.5” from back of heel)

At ~3.5” or 40R (of foot) start using the nylon provided with the MC to reinforce the bottom of the foot. This should get you to 5R before you start the toe decreases (so to R63 or thereabouts).

At end of R64 work 5R CC1 or CC2, prob one on each sock (5.75” from back of heel)

Toe CC1 or CC2 - probably do one sock in each.

About Using the 50g Jawoll Skeins: If you use 3 contrast stripes in the leg then you should be able to get a pair of socks on one ball (50g). You should have enough of the nylon to get you from 3.5” length (40R) to 5.75” length (69R)

For future reference: The supplementary nylon was 4.76g on this spool - slightly less yarn than I had on the previous spool - and the spool that it was wound onto was once again 2.8g.

KristinM100's adjectives for this yarn
  1. Slender fingering (that's rather splitty)
  2. Washer/Dryer Safe
  3. Pills like crazy - quality is not what it was when I first started using this yarn.

KristinM100's adjectives for this yarn
  1. Very slippery and superwash-y, to the extent that it was tricky to knit with
  2. The ball was quite underweight as I believe the 50g includes the nylon yardage, the spool of which weighs almost 3g
  3. If the sock wears better than most, then I can see myself using this in future. I do like that there's a 50g put up
