My first and maybe last FO of 2016. Life is going fast! These socks are made for my sister and I wanted her to have them before the end of the year.
It started pretty well. In June, I was already turning the heel of the second sock. I'm a perfectionist most of the time and... I wasn't happy with how different the two heels were when side to side. I could only imagine how the toes would end differently too - when I so carefully started the second sock with the same colors as the first one. So I had to tink :) That's fine! I almost love it as much as knitting, knowing that I will be satisfied in the end.

Have a good week! xx

I'm with you. I can't stand self striping socks that don't match right. It bothers me so deeply!
I had a look around to see if the Hedgerow sock pattern was really gone because I was interested in it. It can be found at http://www.knittersreview.com/janes-hedgerows/
Thanks for sharing your beautiful socks with us.
Thank yoou
