opal socks with stripes

My first toe up wrapped heel socks that I made with a hybrid pattern. I loved making them this way. I could make them as long as I wanted. I had a bit of trouble with the top being too tight, but I pulled it back and did it very l o o s e ! Tada, excellent socks.

stripey sox

Expertly modelled by the Tiny Madam, calf length socks from Patonyle Accessory book. Knitted with Regia that I bought from ebay. I like them.

mother's day socks

Knitted with 100% merino that I won in Katt's competition. These were lovely to knit, I really enjoy watching patterns emerge even if I often do not like what the finished product looks like with variegation over large items. Socks are perfect! Mother loved them! They are a simple 3x1 rib, top down sock of my own design.
