| Inevitability |
The Blue Moon Fiber Sock Candy socks I completed over the weekend. State of said socks as of 10 minutes ago...
 What happened? I wore them last night to bed to see if what I thought was an issue existed. It did. The ankle doesn't hold up, the heel flap was too short. Sock Candy does not have the same flexibility as Cascade Fixation. So back to the drawing board. I think I'm going to cast on 40 instead of 44 stitches, do all 14 rows of ribbing, increase 4 stitches, make a slightly longer heel flap, and see if my issues are resolved. If not, this will be the last skein of Sock Candy that I purchase. |
