I Knit Socks
Right now, I am working on socks and several other items. This yarn is called Swinger and it is one of my own hand painted merino/silk sock yarns. I am knitting this with US 3 needles. The cast on is 52 stitches so, there is some pooling of color.
I chose to do a heel with a bit of texture to make it interesting. I am using a garter stitch edge for the heel flap, it works out very nicely. I thought of doing an eye of partridge heel flap but, I wanted something completely different with this sock.
The colors seem strange but, they actually do work nicely together and the sock looks fabulous on the foot. Well as far as I have gotten on it, it looks great.
This pair of socks will be for sale once they are finished. :)
