Will I make it again?
Well duh, this is the second pair I’ve made! Next ones will be done probably with a picot edge ala what I saw on January One. It’ll be a slight change to keep it interesting.
Comments:
For some strange reason, the second sock ended up being WAY bigger than the first. Due to a gauge difference. I can’t account for it other than the fact that I didn’t make them both at the same time and my stress must have been at different levels! I can still wear them, but I might want to reknit the second sock if it ends up bugging me. :P

    Nice job. I like the idea of a picot edge. It looks pretty.

    The stripes are so cute in the Monkey pattern!
