One down. One to go.
TH's first sock is done. One can learn so much from each sock they knit. This time I made some modifications from the original pattern...
1) I’m doing these toe-up following Wendy's Generic Toe-Up detailed sock pattern.
2) I CO 60 sts with US 1.5 DPNs and did a short row toe.
3) Then followed the Thuja patten: K the entire 1st row. For the 2nd row, K4, P1 over 30 sts and K the other 30. Rotate.
4) Did a short row heel so that the pattern on the 30 sts is on the front/top of the sock.
5) Did the pattern around the leg.
6) I switched to a smaller size needle for the cuff (US 1).
7) Finished with the EZ sewn BO.
Luckily, TH and I have similar sized feet so I can model them for ya'll. Off to start sock #2.

I LOVE the thuja pattern! It's easy but looks kind of classy, you know? Well done! Good luck with the second one.
thuja is a great pattern.
