Had a long car trip to Ohio for a funeral/family reunion this past weekend, and I got a lot of knitting done on these sockies. I went with just my parents, and of course Mom loved the socks, so I guess they aren’t for me anymore. What can you do?
I made up the pattern, not hard, really. Cast on 12 sts for both socks using the Turkish cast on method, increase until you have 64, then insert 2×2 ribbing on the front. Turns out you get 7 ridges, so they’re lucky!! Now I have to work out the heel. I hate short row heels– they *NEVER* fit someone with feet over size 9 with high arches. Unless you increase out the ass. Which looks stupid. So I need to find a heel flap that I like.
Those socks are looking fantastic! Your dye pal has a fabulous eye for color!
