Big Foot

I've just finished turning the heel on my first sock for Joe and so far have used 27 g of wool which is good news. I was a little worried that I would put too much into the foot and would therefore end up with really short legs but I think 50g per sock should turn out to be quite reasonable.

I decided in the end to make Scylla which are conveniently toe up. They have a 20 row repeating pattern block which makes the knitting seem to go faster. I always find a good memorable pattern is very conducive of "just one more row" syndrome.



I do like to amuse myself by trying them on intermittently though....

Too big, do you think?
