8/5/24
I had a terrible knot in the skein and the colors suddenly changed direction. When trying to pull from the middle, it was yarn vomit at its best … So I wound the ball (with some losses on the way) to a cake, ripped back a little bit and knitted on.
I really hope that I can complete my socks now without having more problems with this yarn. Not impressed so far.

Improvements for next time with this yarn:

  • start Verstärkung at 40 rounds on foot
  • Kitchener stitch with 12 sts on each needle
  • Heel flap at least 32 rows (34?)
