This is the first pair of socks that I have ever made for my husband, so we are working though it with lots of trying on. I made a goofy error on the first sock (it will be ripped out). After the ribbing I wanted to try 9” circulars and when I changed needles I grabbed the wrong size and increased by .5mm, the sock is HUGE! lol

Oh well…on to my second attempt.

The too big sock and the 2nd attempt
