Finished

Finally finished, this knit seems to have been on the go all summer...

.... just in time for the colder weather to keep my feet warm when walking the dog!

Made using Wendy Roam Fusion 4ply wool. I was given a free pattern with the wool, but adapted it a bit to make the leg longer. 

Starting at the cuffs, I thought I had managed to match the wool for the second sock - oh well never mind!

Finished!

I seem to have been knitting these socks for ages, picking them up every now and then when I had time, taking them to 'knit and natter' and probably nattering more than knitting. When I looked back I started this pair back around Easter time and have only just finished them in time to pack for the hols!

I managed to keep the textured pattern going, but on close inspection have noticed a couple of tiny mistakes - but who is going to look that closely when they are on my feet and in my boots! It will only be me that knows :-)

Beanie watched me pull them on and admire them and, ever hopeful, thought we were going for a walk!
