For those that follow my Instagram, sorry for the duplicate post haha.
But just wanted to share and show off a cute pair of Sock Monkey Socks!
It's been a while since I've done cuff-down socks, so things felt backwards for sure. Still not a fan haha, but glad it wasn't as much of a struggle this time around. However, doing a size 10 foot made the home stretch feel extra long to knit. All in all, they're fabulous, and hubby is happy! Nate wanted "nothing fancy" meaning no cables or texture. So a classic sock and playing with color is the best option.
I did do a classic 2x2 ribbing for the cuff to help the socks stay up. It's also my first time doing an "eye of partridge heel". It's supposed to be more reinforced, along with the 25% nylon within the wool base, but I'm not so sure. Theres things ill consider for nates socks down the road if he wears through them like his normal socks. So for now, only time will tell.
