some de-stashing, and prep for Canterbury Faire - snip, snip, snip..

 Brain is fizzing with ideas and priorities. Having trouble sorting them - they keep jumping the queue in a very unBritish fashion...

FOs from over the holidays

I finished my first try at a pattern from Knitty.com called 'Widdershins'.
The socks look skinny because I'm fond of ribbing.
I hate having socks that slide down, so I opted to rib the stockinetter part, except the sole.
They are a perfect fit right now, and I still have a large ball + an entire large skein left for the next pair, presumeably for my sweetie.
The striping and waves in teh colours were a happy accident.

	heel detail - toe-up turned-heel socks First try at doing a pattern from knitty.com called 'widdershins' - a toe-up sock that has a turned heel - most of them have short-row heels. This is a focus on the gusset and turned heel.
