NOTES
I was able to use some leftovers from my “Boneyard Sweethearts” hat. This light color was a perfect color for the lace pattern.
Modifications
Switched to Toe Up vs. Cuff down
Judy’s Magic Cast On - (My favorite vanilla toe shape for my foot) 8 stitches each needle (16 total); Round 1: knit; Round 2: K1, M1R, Knit until 2 stitches, M1L, K1 (both needles); Round 3: knit - Repeat rounds 2 & 3 until there are 50 stitches total for the foot
I used US 1 (2.25mm) knitting needles for the entire sock
Used my favorite heel construction - Fleegle Heel + No Holes Version
Knit 5” for the leg before starting 1x1 rib
Reversed the lace chart
Two-at-a-Time (TAAT), until the lace chart

Final Thoughts
This sock flew off the knitting needles. These were a surprisingly quick knit. I could see myself knitting these again.
