Started to work on the night of book sale setup (had to be at the mall for extra hours). Two socks on two circs. Using Riverbed + Fleegle Heel + a herringbone stitch + lace on the foot and sides. Heel, toe, and cuff will be purple. Hope to use a picot hem with eyelets…
took the idea of Sister Janie, expanded the width of the motif, and then stretched the space between increase/decrease rows out. Like a waterfall!
Inspired by Domino Heart Purse, but using heavier needle and yarn; adapted dimensions for this new gauge.
120st/8.25” before crown.
After a swatch went a totally different way that I expected, I used it as a guide for this pattern. Initially swatched with Dream in Color classy from AmyToadyJoe. Then tried Cat’s Eye previously ripped out from some socks. Now SweetGeorgia… much better. Charted as I went, but tweaked heavily as i made it through…
Started toe-up, with Judy’s magic cast-on and 12 stitches; increasing up to my standard 72 before starting the lace pattern from Cotty. Hope to do a toe-up gusset heel to make it match.
