A tale of two gauges

Here are Peyton's and Allie's socks, both being modeled by Peyton. Peyton's sock (shown with just ribbing done) is done at the gauge the pattern called for, but she increased the stitch count to make the sock fit her better. Allie's sock (with the entrelac section) follows the pattern's original stitch count, but she is getting fewer stitches per inch than the gauge the pattern called for. As you can see, both socks fit pretty much the same. Which is good, since Allie's sock is actually a belated Christmas present for Peyton! Hopefully these ladies will join us and can tell you more about their Annetrelac experiences than I can.
