And the socks continue

I’ve casted on my next pair of sock, Vihtori, out of some Zauberball Crazy that was a gift to me from my friend Sophie. I am really enjoying this knit. Simple, yet effective. And of course the changing yarn colour is always fun, too.

I’ve modified these to be a top down sock, over 64 stitches. The pattern calls for 72 stitches for a size 44 foot. I wear a size 43/44, so I started with the recommended stitch count but once I was about 1” past the ribbing I tried it on and decided it was just too loose, even for bed socks (which is what I think I’ll be using them for… I love pretty bedsocks). After the last pair of socks I think I was being a bit over cautious and cast on the full 72. At least I remembered to try them on this time.
