Sock it to me - June 2007

Bit of a catch up month using yarns that have been here a while.
Koigu Broadripple, yarn has been in stash over 6 months.
Natural Dye Studio BFL, this has been resident for over a year.
Yarn Yard Merino colour Blink, a very recent arrival. The pattern this is based on is the Colinette Jitterbug label. Gorgeous yarn, very soft and similar to Posh Yarns Emily.
Crew Socks from Interweave Knits Summer 2007 edition. These are my first Toe up attempt which also have short row heels and a sewn cast off. So its been a learning curve, as they say. The Yarn has been around for about 6 months and is Posh Yarns Lucia in Twinkle colourway.
Will do Toe up again but possibly not Short Row heels, don't quote me on that one though.

Gorgeous gallery of socks. Isn't it great when you knit up long term residents and realise how beautiful they are?! I'm not a fan of short row heels at all.

Lovely socks. I must admit I still have sock yarn in my stash from this time last year!! Eeek!
