In Which the Pirate Makes a Sad Discovery.
This morning I reached into my sock drawer and pulled out a pair of Jaywalkers that I knit a dozen years ago. They haven’t gotten much wear and they still look really good, but… I couldn’t get the sock cuff over my heel. And then I remembered the last time I tried knitting a pair of Jaywalkers. My feet have grown. Dangit.
I guess I’ll be reclaiming this yarn and making something else. Something not Jaywalkers, this time. What a great excuse to spend my morning exploring fingering-weight knitting patterns!
Ah, BUMMER. These are beautiful. At least you have the skill to salvage them and make something else with them!
If I had a friend with feet just slightly smaller than mine, I’d give them away! But I think they’d be too narrow now for most people.
