Well, that didn't take long. I finished my pair of Business Casual in 4 days! Testament of sheer will, ha. That and neglecting other things.
They fit perfect and I love them! The Purple Label knit up like a dream. I'll have to update on the wear, but since it's a MCN blend, I think they'll be ok.
I knit this pair per pattern size small, cuff down, on DPNs. In the future I might add a pattern repeat to the small, but I like my socks on the shorter side. It took 3 foot repeats even for the foot before the toe. The toe is the perfect width for my toes, I liked the even decreases, instead of an every-other-row to every-row decrease.
It's been awhile since I've done a cuff down sock with a heel flap. The joy of turning the heel! How I've forgotten.
I've already pulled out some stash for a second pair, but I must finish my sweater! Ahh, who am I kidding, I'll cast on anyway...



Beautiful socks! Makes me want to knit a pair.
ReplyDeleteThese socks are over the moon for me. I am going to be starting a pair here very soon.
