FO Friday (May 4th 2012)
Finally I have a finished object to report!! It has been a while! In the beginning of April I started doing a mystery sock over at the Solid Sock group on Ravelry. It was so much fun to have a clue released each week. That gave me a week to do up the clue before the next one was released and allowed me to finish the pair of socks in one month. I did them two at a time on magic loop so I didn't have to worry about second sock syndrome. The only trouble I had was that they came out too big. Oh well... I didn't read the instructions properly and ended up using the larger needle all the way instead of using the smaller needles on the foot. Oops! I also modified the cuff. The design was for a pretty ruffled cuff but since my socks are always hidden under my pant legs (and because my socks were a bit loose on me). I decided to do a 1x1 ribbing on the cuff instead.
The pattern is Cherry Littlebottom and here is a picture of my finished socks:

ReplyDeleteThey look very nice on your feet. Are they machine washable? If so they might snug up a bit after a wash and dry!
