Notes

Mods - converting to toe up with a German short row heel

Using a pair of my well-fitting Smartwool socks as a guide

56sts around to match the circumference of my SW socks. knit foot same length, then increase rounds (increase, plain increase, plain & increase) 6 sts increases on the instep

Ready for heel

The ribbed pattern isn’t centered - doing a mirrored ribbed pattern.

Started this while home alone with COVID - in between naps in the hammock
