Toe up 2 at a time socks. I improvised the pattern using the Sample Socks from Toe-Up 2-at-a-Time Socks by Melissa Morgan-Oakes as a guide. I just guestimated how many stitches to cast on and how many rows to knit by trying the sock on to check the fit.
Used a standard bind off while knitting 1x1 rib, but didn’t take care to do it extra loosely. The opening is very tight.
