Just a few baby socks from the big bowl of left-overs
They worked up really quickly and I think that they look adorable.
I went for a slightly longer leg, intending them to be folder over. To make sure that the cast on edge was really loose, I cast on 25% more stitches and on the first row did *k2, p2tog, p*.
There were made with some left-over fleece artist
and these Steinbach Activ Wolle
Oh! They are both beautiful, I can't wait to see which pair is for Finnigan. Thank you again Polly, this was so sweet of you. I will be sure to post a picture of warm toasty little toes.
