At last!
Started: 10 August 2006Finished: 4 April 2007
Yarn: Cygnet wool-rich 4 ply. Most of 1 ball of black, 2/3 ball cream
Needles: 2.5mm circs (magic loop) and dpns (for heel)
Notes: I had a serious case of second sock syndrome with these socks. I love the result, but I don't like the process of shadow knitting. I think it's the ratio between having to pay attention (rows with knits and purls) and just plodding on (plain knit rows). There's not quite enough of either. Anyway, they're done and I'm wearing them today and amusing myself by wiggling my feet to make the hearts appear and disappear. Nice pattern Alice!
Ooh, go and look at Alice's cat socks from her winning entry to the Purlescence story competition.
