Notes

My most ambitious project so far - I’m very happy with it! Hadn’t it been for the KAL, I would probably have never tackled it.

TAAT, top-cuff-down.
Tubular CO in the round. I found this tutorial helpful.

Twisted 3 tog R - I used phosita’s recipe
Turning the heel stitch distribution: 39, 45, 40 - just trust it.
Turning the heel: stage 1 - mark 14 sts from sides of the heel so that I don’t have to count the rows.
Did 32 final rounds (3 repeats of the chart), not 44. The result is a bit tight length-wise, but I guess it’s better than an oversized sock.

50gr or yarn was used for the cuff and instep, 27 gr for the foot and toe.
