the first attempt


These little flip-flop socklets took no time at all. It's a very simple pattern that works well enough, but I'm already thinking of some improvements. Primarily I'd like the outside section of the foot to slope downward so that my little toe isn't covered by the socklet. After all, isn't that the point of flip-flops - bare toes?

So I've cast on another set. Taking queues from patterns like Jaywalker socks and Rick Socks, I think I can plan increases and decreases to create the V-shaped socklet I have in mind. I've still got enough leftovers of Dye-Version Bamboo Stretch Sock, that I can play around for another couple of pairs.
