I love these socks. I love to color. I love the pattern. They were wonderful from the easy lace at the top all the way through the stockinette body and even through the grafting on the toe.

These were a perfect knit for our slow-starting spring/summer when it was still grey and rainy and all I wanted was SOME COLOR! These certainly fit that bill.

The yarn is wonderful and I will definitely use it again if I can get my hands on some more. (Shouldn’t be that hard with sock summit coming up.)

Updated photos taken 9 years later. Yarn has held up great. I’m not noticing any spots that look at risk of wearing through. I wash these in the machine on delicate, so its not like I’m babying them.

If I’m being honest, I should have knit 3-5 more rounds on the foot before starting the decrease. It’s just a bit tight across the foot and pulls the heel under just a bit.

I’m impressed these are still going strong.
