My socks are finished! My second sock was knit so much quicker than the first one. I'm not sure if it was the new needles or just my familiarity with the pattern. I really love this pattern. It's an easy chart to follow and I love the final product!
Here's a close up of the cables. I love how the cables are vertical but the yarn makes a diagonal pattern with the color. I feel this yarn adds so much interest to the socks. Too bad they're socks and won't be really seen while being worn. These are definitely one of my most favorite socks I've knit. I just may have to make them again!
These socks are beautiful, Rosemary! We should start a new fashion fad that will show off our socks! LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sharon! I'm afraid we would look silly but I would love to show off the socks we made!!
DeleteI too love your cables and the way the yarn colored them, Rosemary!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Dora! I think they're the best socks I've ever knitted!
DeleteBeautiful cables on the socks. I love the color.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I didn't know how good the yarn would look until I started to knit. Love this colorway!
Deletebeautiful socks. I would want to wear them everyday! love the pattern and the color
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm amazed how good they look. The yarn did all the work!
DeleteLovely socks--I love how the cables stretch out when you put them on--perfect for cuffs--great job! Hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Hope the snow has stopped for you. It never really got going here.
DeleteThe colors in the yarn really showed up nicely in the cables. Do you get to keep these I hope?
ReplyDeleteI'm supposed to give them as a gift but I just may end up keeping them! So glad you like them!
