The Socks that would not be - Are!
The Pretty Petals are done - much to my disbelief!! These were almost chucked a few times. The pattern is beautiful, but I made so many changes, and so many false starts - well, I am glad they finally ARE. And, I am pleased - pretty much. I still need to perfect the percentages on the Short Row Heel, but the fit is getting better.
I used 2.25mm Pony Pearls DPNS, dropping down to a 2.0mm for the heel and toes. The yarn is Lisa Souza, and as always - I love the feel!! It is so soft to work with, and yummy to wear!!
Now, off to finish the Hippy Chunky socks, and then....???

The socks are beautiful, see you in cascading leaves.
Beautiful - despite the false starts! The color is very pretty too.
Wow, these socks are absolutely amazing, such a fantastic pattern, and the color you used is so beautiful too! Great job!
