Frankensocks



I have dubbed my first completed pair of socks "Franken-socks". You can't really tell from this photo, but they are kind of baggy and droopy, which I think is party a function of the softness of the yarn (K1C2 "Ambrosia"). The yarn is some of the softest I've ever knit with, and seems geared towards bed-socks, rather than "regular" socks.

This whole heel thing is really killing me. I started work on a second pair of these socks (same yarn) for a charity raffle, and I'm going to have spend an hour today frogging out the heel section. GAH!!

Patches keeps the sock thing pretty simple. Just plain white:
