So remember, I fell off the bike, right? Yes well...I was knitting along and realized that if I kept knitting with the bigger needle, the socks would be way too loose. Bugger! I also came to realize that knitting on said larger needle also meant that I could do more repeats before starting the heel! Yup, ribbit. I frogged and added more length to the leg and once I hit the heel, I changed to a smaller needle.
Success! Not only does the foot fit great since it's smaller/tighter, but knitting the leg portion on the larger needle successfully accommodates myfat athletic legs!! Woohoo!

soooo close to the end!
Didn't I say that knitting on the smaller needle gave stripes?! See? It really does! Yay!

They are very pretty. I guess I'll have to copy them.
