Notes

Love these socks!

I started with the 9” sock for my wider ankles and foot, but knitting a shorter length. Stopped knitting foot at about 7” when foot tugged taut (47 rows past last gusset decrease).

I knit 6 repeats of toe decreases, then started decreasing every round until I had 28 sts on the needles (4 more than the pattern calls for) to reduce toe length and make them less pointy for my blunt toes.
