The sock




Yarn: Koigu KPM in teal




Needle: Knit Picks size 3



So here is the sock. I have turned the heel and picked up the stitches for the gusset. I see one little hole where I picked up the wrong stitch. I left it. The Koigu yarn is wonderful. I am thinking I may use the other ball I have to make Eunny Jang's Endpaper Mits.

I will need to get a 2nd color...

I love the sock and will finish it. I do not think I will knit its mate because the idea of hand wash only socks is a bit much. I will keep it and love it. I have some sock yarn to dye and then I am going to make a pair of socks...2 that match!

I'll double check to be sure, but I'm almost certain that a woman from our knitting group who knits alot of socks said that she puts her Koigu socks in the machine and they are fine.
