    About

    Shew it took ages but I finished 'em in the end!!
    I started with 60 stiches so they don't feel too tight for my nun's feet.

    Yarns

    • material-yarn
      Opal Daydream 6 ply - Not sure the name but the code is 8355 ✕ 0.5 balls

    Needles & Hooks

    • Double Point 3.00mm (US 2.5)

    Measurements

    Notes: I made a couple of adjustments to the pattern;

    1) # of starting stitches: for UK 5 (EU 38): standard cuff stitch using 6-ply is 52, but I increased it to 60 - the FO is quite loose (as intended).

    2) Leg: I did 2x2 stitch for 45 rows.

    3) Gusset: I slipped 1 stich before the marker in even rounds to make it look a little bit interesting.

    4) Toe decrease: Once there were 20 stiches in total, I decreased stiches every row & finished it with 12 stiches.
