Notes

I’m dubbing these as my “tornado” socks because I finished them while watching on tv as the devastating tornadoes cruised through my state of Oklahoma on May 20, 2013.

This yarn feels a lot thicker than most other fingering weight sock yarn that I’ve knit with. Thicker, and coarser. I will probably make these into boot socks.

64 stitches
Size 0 (2.0 mm) needles
Socks slightly too big.

Oct. 11, 2012: CO with size 0 (2.0 mm) needles.
Dec. 28, 2012: Picking these up again after not working on them for a few months. Ready for the heel.
