I've finally got the pattern memorized after many false starts and getting this far!! About time,huh?I really like this sock~~I will do it again in another yarn .... a more "me" color. This one is fun but not my favorite.
I'm more the earth tones .
Last night I had the toes almost finished but didn't like the "bulge" I was getting on the side where the decreases start. I'm not sure how to remedy it. It seems there are too many stitches for the toe
area. I usually do 72 sts. for my socks and now I have 78. I wouldn't think the 6 sts. would make such a difference but it seems to. I'm at a stand still on what to do now? I want a smooth transition from the foot pattern to the dec's.
I have a horrible headache today...woke up with it and it doesn't want to go away so I may not do much knitting. How annoying!
Here is the toeless "J" I have a good fit until the toes so I really want to figure this out!
Off to lay down........

Nice looking sock. Wish that I could help, but making socks will be one of my next tackles! :) Good luck!
Try decreases at each 'seam line' zig zag spot--an even round of decreases to your usual number will probably solve your bulges--or at least it is worth a try.
I'm no help, but I love your sock. The Jaywalker pattern looks terrific with the red, white, and blue stripes. :-)
What a fun colorway!
