The Schaeffer “Anne” was very nice to work with, and, as it’s a little lighter than the Koigu or similar yarns, it made a slightly more refined sock.\u00a0\u00a0 Where my Koigu KPPPM socks do well in sneakers or light trail shoes, these are light (and refined) enough to work well in leather lace ups.<\/p>\n

I made the ankles about an inch too short for my liking, as it turns out — not a fault of the pattern or the yarn, but execution error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
