Notes

Started at the green-->blue color change. So far it is looking great!

Dec 3rd, 2011: Still working on the foot of the first sock; been busy!

Dec 29th, 2011: This project got set aside while I made presents for everyone. I love how it is coming along, though!

Sep 1st, 2012: Wow, time sure passed! I think this may be my longest WIP that I’m actually finishing! Today, completed the first sock. It is gorgeous. Definitely a wear-with-sandals sock, since I want everyone to see it.

Sep 10th, 2012: Done, after almost 10 months! They both ended up a little tight in the heel, but should stretch out. Skew is such a great pattern! It keeps everything interesting, but you don’t need to look at the pattern for every row.

Notes:
** Ribbing was 1kx2p twisted. Knit every first row of the color, which meant cleaner lines.
