Notes

Using the light color for the main color. When I was working on the leg it seemed a little big, but I kept going. After working the heel flap I realized that it is kind of hard to get my heel through the leg. I think it will be okay though. :)

I stopped right after the colorwork on the foot. I wasn’t able to do the last 8 or so rows for my length. Yardages are an approximate.
