Given how much I enjoy knitting socks, encourage others to try knitting socks, and basically never stop talking about knitting socks, I thought you might all appreciate the project notes from my first ever socks.

Team top down except for that one time I started at the heel. I was not convinced that it was going to work. I felt the need to sacrifice a chicken to make the dark magic work correctly. I'm currently contemplating a toe up pattern. It's a helix rib without a heel... The idea being I don't have to make a new sock when my munchkins outgrow the ones I just finished 🥴. Anyone have any experience with heelless socks?
