Heart & Sole
Posted by Dee under Finished Projects 2009, General, socktopus club 2009
So a few weeks ago we all awaited the arrival of our shiny silver parcels aka the Sock(topus) Sock Club! Inside was the most amazing yarn dyed by Theyarnyard I have to admit I am not a big fan of red – but I love this colour, it reminds me of poppies (the photos don’t do it justice). Also a simple yet unusual pattern by Ysolda (I am a big fan for her beret pattern so was looking forward to this months instalment).
It took me a while to understand how this pattern was going to work as it omitted the short row for the heel, rather than ponder too much about the construction, I got out my needles and knit and knit and knit! With in no time I’d completed the sole and the heel magically appeared.
In no time I was wearing my socks! .
More photos here.

[...] I have just realised I never posted my finished sock on here, even though I wrote about them on my own blog last month. [...]
