Given how much I enjoy knitting socks, encourage others to try knitting socks, and basically never stop talking about knitting socks, I thought you might all appreciate the project notes from my first ever socks.
My first pair of socks (top-down, four needles) I knitted inside out. I was halfway through sock one of pair two when I realised. I'm still not sure how it happened! Dozens of socks later I'm in Team Toe-up, with a fleegle heel, on two circulars. The next challenge is to learn to knit two socks at a time...
The socks that the notes in the OP are about, I was doing them two at a time toe-up. And about two inches in, I also got mixed up and somehow knitted them both inside out for a while without noticing. Literally, to this day, no idea how I managed it.
But know you are not alone 🤝
