Notes

14th August 2014

Aaaaand finished! Hahaha I can’t believe I made one backwards!

12th August 2014

Haha I totally somehow made the second one backwards. I’m not frogging it though.

3rd August 2014

So on the 28th July I officially restarted the socks, and I’m glad I did! Today I finished one of them, and it’s probably a tad messy but it’s my first sock so blah!

Perfect fit, this pattern is excellent. I opted for the “eye of the partridge” pattern for the heel flap as opposed to the ridges and it looks rather nice.

Oh, and I couldn’t have made it without Kelley’s Sock Class!

30th April 2014

You know how when you are halfway through knitting your socks on those expensive needles you bought especially, and you can finally measure the gauge, and you know they are too small but you keep going anyway…yeah, I think I need to start again.
