Started for Madrona trip. 2.5mm needles were just too loose after completing the toe. Bought 2.25 Chiagaoo needles while there and started again. Much better! Adjusting the pattern to match my gauge and the yarn being slightly lighter. Plus, doing them toe-up.
used TDTU heel from @KnittingRN, and started rib in center of the rows after the heel turn. Turned Heel and finished gusset mid-march.
Finished the day before my Birthday Extravaganza so I could wear them to the beach!

not completely sure of the stats of the skeins. one was a prize, another was an early OFFF purchase that was never added to rav. tan yarn was 130g to begin with, and used all. blue yarn was 144g to begin with, and used 20g
Holding pink alpaca Peruvian laceweight from a cone with the Zauberball to get a fabric I like. I’ll have to weigh the project to figure out the yardage of the laceweight. ZK2021/ZKN KAL, Try Something New: first time crocheting a garment! 1/8: first try, just the zauberball was too small. Bumped up the needle size…
began on the train to ZK. picked back up for the flight home. made it over half way on edging at the fort on the fourth. edging used backwards knitting technique.
been in my queue since December 2007. Started swatching on size 4’s, need to go up a needle size which means finding the next size tips in whatever project they are in 😉
two unicorn tails. hand balled the night of purchase. knit from the center out to make a headband/scarf that feather and fan’d out from an i-cord into leaf like motifs at the end. Used all of the yarn, with just the ends left for a braided bracelet.
