FO: Gryffindor Socks

Yay, I finished my first socks for my outstanding sock trades!

Pattern: Skew Socks
Yarn: Regia Nation Colors
Needles: US 1
Mods: None!

So… I am disappointed these socks are not for me. Because I love them. And the recipient even has my same shoe size. So I’m totally jealous. They’re totally great socks. And the pattern is wonderful and fascinating. They knit up pretty quickly, and even though they’re stockinette socks, the increases and decreases keep you interested. Fun and wonderful for self-striping yarns. I’m totally going to make another pair from this pattern for me at some point.

I love the way the stripes swirl around the heel. : )

I’ve started, by the way, the second pair of swap socks, and they are wonderful. The yarn is SO NICE to knit with. But more on that later. : )
