Progressing quickly

From Friday being midway to the 4th leg decrease to Monday being almost done with the Chart C cables on the ankles. Once I found my rhythm for this knit, she has moved along quickly.


My calves measure 15.5" but I have made no changes to the pattern whatsoever. I keep remeasuring them to be sure I really can read the tape measure correctly. Clessidra feels like a dream on, just perfectly snug as knee socks should be. They are not binding tight as I feared they might be. It will be a long summer with these tucked in a drawer waiting for the cold, snowy weather. I am already planning to knit at least 2 more pairs of these: one in a royal purple for my teen dd and a pair in green for me to match my favorite nightgown!

you've def. got me beat. not only are you WAY further along (i'm on 5th repeat), but I'm only planning HALF a pair right now, as compared to your THREE complete pairs. Looks great so far!
