A New Year, A Free Sock Pattern // Casual Friday S6E01

In this week's Casual Friday podcast, I have tidbits, a tour of Weldon's Practical Needlework Vol. III, and a demonstration of the free sock pattern I reverse engineered from a sock knit decades ago in Norway. This sock is the first project in a long term project to knit socks and stockings from different centuries.
