Lea yarn plus BT Roco 20g each color. 20g total left between all 6 colors.

cast on at the beginning of #kdlbadventure in the PDX airport to #zk2015 and to see a dear friend. JMCO 14, increase to 38? increase again before the heel. backwards knitting for the heel. could use a little more ease in the top of the foot before the heel.
