Sock Mania



No sooner do I finish one pair of socks than I cast on the next. I must have the get ready for winter bug.



These are knitted in Opal Planète ‘Rosa’. It's nice yarn and knits up quickly. I still prefer Colinette Jitterbug to all the other sock yarns I've tried.



My first attempt at a mirror pic. Note that I was too lazy to remove my tights or even to put the socks on straight, tsk. They don't match! I know; I don't care. If I used the yarn again I would know that there's plenty of it and wind through to start with the same colour for each sock.
