Notes

3rd attempt for a toes up pattern that works for this yarn.

58 sts cast on works for me foot amazingly enough

10/24/2016

3 attempts to get the heel right - well acceptable - with practice I will improve

10/26/2016

yeah one sock done!

10/29/2016

yea!! foot part of sock 2 done - starting heel turn

10/30/2016

2nd sock went way faster with only one time through on each section

need to find a stretchier bind off for the socks as it’s tighter than I like - not sure i’ve had bind offs this tight before

11/01/2016

Decided i’ll tink back and redo the binding. Startied on another sock pattern - but will get back to it soon
