Notes

Modified the pattern a bit for a slightly tighter gauge by messing with the worksheet numbers. Hopefully it works!

Around the heel I started holding my yarns differently -- each strand wrapped around a different finger, to help the marl to be more even. I think you can see the difference in how the colors look below versus above the heel. (I stopped doing this after awhile first because I put the project down for months and forgot, but then just because it’s kind of annoying to do and hurts my hands a little.)

I had intended to keep going until my yarn ran out, and I started making increases gradually as I got higher on the legs, but I wasn’t increasing quite enough so they need to slouch down a little, and I eventually realized that using up allll the yarn was to much so I just decided to work the cuffs and call them done at some point. I like them!
