[edit] Knitter's Notes

"wonderfully soft... I love the broad stripes of this yarn and the little specks." -- [Alianne]

A single ball of Austermann Step is very generous for a pair of socks. Wish I'd knit toe-up so that I could have used more and gotten taller socks. --LisaDusseault 22:54, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
