That’s right, I finished the socks! These took a long time (over a month) but now that they are done, it was worth it. I love the way that they turned out! I made the smaller size, which I was a bit worried was too small, but turns out was exactly the size I needed. I wear a women’s 9.5 and have pretty wide feet, but the smaller size fits with just a tiny bit of snugness (perfect if you hate socks that fall down… like me!).
I used Cascade Heritage Sock in the colour 5631 (charcoal). As I said when I finished my last socks in Heritage Sock, I really like this yarn- it’s soft, seems durable so far, and comes in great colours.
I knit these as part of a KAL hosted by Celtic Cast-On. If you have a few extra moments, I would encourage you to go check out some of the other finished socks so far… there are some very beautiful ones!
I hope you all had a lovely weekend!
I’ll be linking up with KCCO, Yarn-Along, and FO Friday as usual.
These socks look fantastic, I’m so glad that you’re pleased with the pattern, you’ve definitely done it justice! 😉
Thanks Tanis! And thanks again for sharing the pattern- it is beautiful and I know I will be making many more 🙂
Those are so well made! Very even. Lovely job.
Thanks so much, Kirsti!
Very smart socks. I love the grid pattern.
Thanks, Ginny! The patterns is a great one (and free!).
The socks look incredible! The texture and color is a nice combination. I bet you’ll get a lot of use from them.
Thank-you, Michelle! I’ve actually already worn them twice… I think they’re going to be a favourite 🙂
Beautiful socks, beautiful photography!
Thanks for your kind words, Lisa! Have a great day 🙂
