I love the look and the worsted weight. What is the gauge for this pattern?
Thanks Jodie- I am not 100% on the gauge, but I think it’s about 18 sts for 4 inches. That is for a size 6 foot. I hope you enjoy the pattern- there are lots of projects on Ravelry now, and many people made some great recommendations.
