FO report

yet another belated FO report


these are the twisted rib socks that i made on my trip to texas to visit dad and family over christmas holiday. i never got around to posting a photo, actualy never gotto take the photo til a couple days ago. i wore them once, tossed them into the laundry pile and when the wash was done there was only one sock i was so upset. see the washer sometimes steals things i'm convinced of it. but i finaly did find the second sock. whew. way worse than second sock syndrome, it would have been third socksyndrome!!!

so here they are
sockotta sock yarn
knit on 2 circs (addi #1)
i used the hourglass heel and made up the rest!!!

What nice socks! Don't worry, I'll be dropping by occasionally give you a little teaser about your socks. I'm trying to decide now on color ... too many lovely colors and types of yarn to choose from.
