Notes

getting rid of some of the leftovers that I failed to get rid of in my Sock Yarn Mega Destash blanket.

Using the Addi Sock Wonder needle for the first time, which takes some getting used to, but is cool.

These socks are turning out rather ugly, but even ugly socks will keep your feet warm in the winter.

Also, as ililush said when I showed her a photo of these: “It’s not ugly, it’s meta”, which is true, and belongs on a t-shirt. Or perhaps should be knit in fancy letters on a scarf.
