Anyway, here we have my latest FO :)
Done done done done done....... (project page here) |
Pattern: None. These are basic stockinette socks with a heel flap and gusset heel decreases.
Time Frame: started June 29, 2012; finished May 24, 2013
Yarn: Sock Yarn from htNEVELE (Etsy shop)
Needles: US #1 (2.25 mm) - I used two 32" circulars
Size: To fit me
Modifications: None - it's a pattern from my own little head
Thoughts: The yarn is somewhat self-striping but after I did the decreases, the stripes got all messed up. I suppose I should have expected it. I was hoping it would continue a little but it just didn't happen. I think if I make socks like this again, and I can almost guarantee that I will, I will remember to CO onto two needles and maybe make the cuff a little longer.
Anyway, here are some more shots of my socks :)
For more FO Friday fun, visit Tami :) (I'll be visiting as soon as I wake up...and as soon as she posts so I can linky)
They are beautiful! I am amazed with! Totally! I haven’t made one sock in my life – though I have “The knitters’ almanac” so I think this will change pretty soon. ;-) Anyway – fantastic job!
