Pattern: Drunken Bees by DomestiCat (man, she has a beautiful home)
Yarn: Koigu KPM, 2236; 2.05 balls. That .05 ball? Whole different dye lot. All three were purchased from Purl - the first two in person in ‘06, plus more online in ‘08.
Needles: Addi Turbo, US 1, 32″ - magic loop for the win!
Mods: I didn’t really change anything, but if I were to knit these again (and they were SO. MUCH. FUN, so I just might) I’d chart out the 6 stitches on each edge of the instep in order to continue the drunkeness all the way down the foot. Instead I just knit the edge stitches in stockinette. Nice, cozy, but less drunk.
I love these! Warm, cozy, and so much fun to knit! And fun to look at when you’re done. And just all around awesome! Go make some!
