testing

Ankle socks make for quick knitting!
Pattern: Yarrow Ribbed Socks by Nancy Bush, in her book Knitting Vintage Socks
Yarn: About 1 skein of Lorna's Laces in the Hawaii colorway
Needles: Size 2 Addi's, 2 circ style

Gratuitous sock on foot action: I attempted a "French Toe" this time, and it looks quite, um, interesting... And a German heel, which is my new favorite heel because it's wider than the standard short row variety I've seen. Oh, and no holes in the gusset:
I'm excited about figuring it out, can't you tell?
And I'm prepared to share!
