Notes

I separated this into two skeins, so I could make both socks alike (almost anyway…)
I had to weigh the skeins, and found the total was only 95 grams (the label promised 100 g.)

I find magic-loop / 2 at a time to be both great and a bit annoying. Great because I avoid the second sock syndrome (which seems to be my curse…), and annoying because of all the cord pulling - I can´t seem to find a good work-rhythm…

I´m not a sock knitter- (I prefer sweaters and cardigans), so I´m testing this to me new method in hope that I can use it for sleeves and nordic-mittens…

And since I don´t like variegated or color-changing yarn either, I really think I´m a sport for casting on these socks… but I have to admit the yarn is good for exactly what it´s made for - socks, -and I like the colors :)

Now I just have to figure out which heel to knit…
