and for those curious , here’s a link to the crystal socklet.

It is in a Knitty pattern from a few years ago, Crystal Socklets or something. Google finds it for me!

A regular afterthought (at least ones I’ve done before) is basically a toe, with 4 decreases total, done in pairs on either side. The Crystal spaces them out to the quarter points of the sock, and I find the fit much comfier. But that’s just what my feet like!

The perfect thing to knit to get out of this cold winter funk! I am in love already! I had no idea that you had a Ravelry group, but I remedied that problem and can’t wait to join your sock KAL!

i stopped making it a goal that i would end up with less yarn each year. the new goal is just to stay even.

Heading to the “Rock the Socks” thread now. I’ve been on a sock hiatus during the winter, but really need to use up a lot of stash fingering so I can buy more. (Did I just say that outloud?)
