Scrap busting: Saddle Sock

You might be wondering what is a saddle sock?  


Basically, it's some silly name that I made up for a section of a Gensingen Brace that is irritating my underarm region.  


Since it is made from leftover scrap merino wool fabric from this project, my mind just thought of it as a sock.  But I digress.  I tried to trace out the shape by rolling the section of the back brace over some paper.  I didn't quite get the right shape but it turned out to be an easy adjustment.  


Now, I just have to test it out.  If it works out there will be more "socks" hitting the work table.




Stand strong, elbows up and keep sewing.
