Finished my toe-up socks on Sunday! The knitting-two-at-once thing really worked out well, I think… it’s so nice to have both socks ready to wear!

This particular pattern uses an afterthought heel, so I was really nervous about running out of yarn. I ended up making the leg-part of the sock rather short, and ended up with a lot of extra yarn. Next time, I’ll definitely make the leg-portion longer.

Other things to remember for next time:
- 8 stitches is kind of small for a toe-cast on. Next time, I’d make that at least 10 stitches.

- When they say cast off loosely, they mean it! I cast off fairly loosely for me, and it’s a pain to squeeze my feet into the socks. Next time, I might cast off in the rib pattern to make it extra loose.

- Toe-up socks are pretty awesome when knitting for oneself (or for feet that are nearby).
