About an inch in, I grew suspicious and found, sure enough, that the tubular cast on they'd had me use would barely fit over my foot and wouldn't go far up my calf. Two possibilities, that I was doing it wrong or that they were, so I checked the comments to the pattern on Ravelry and found that several others had the same problem - and also found a link to the *different* tubular CO the designer had actually used, with a good tutorial, on her own website. I have no idea why IK made the change, but it was not a good change to make. The two COs are similar enough (except that one is stretchy and one .... isn't) that my guess is that it's a mistake.<BR/><BR/>I left my own Ravelry comments explaining my experience both in another comment to the pattern and to my own project, just to pass the info along.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
