I originally started out making Waterfall Rib with this yarn but wasn't happy with the combination of yarn & pattern so after 13cm of knitting on both legs I frogged it & started again.

These socks seem to have been on the needles forever but during their making I've had a lot on with losing Blue, DD's accident & more.

They are extremely comfortable & a perfect fit which is why I love making my own socks.

The socks are gorgeous! You must be really wanting winter to arrive so you can wear them :)
I love the way the KTBL does make the stitches pop!
I love them and your photos are great too. :)
They look fab! Great pics too. I haven't tried that pattern out of SKS so I'll have to go and have a look for it.
Very cute :D That looks much better, so well worth the wait.
Very nice! I love the stitch definition and the colorway as well.
