i realized i forgot to blog these, so here we are. loved the pattern, definitely the best one available. i didn't do any calf shaping. i accidentally made two left socks. don't ask. they were inspired by this thread on ravelry, and this movie.
one more shot, cause i'm madly in love with them.

the charades look lovely! i'm in love with the color.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the argyle ones. Somehow the Charades don't want to be knit up from my Araucania, so I might just make a pair of gloves out of it or something. :D
Those ROCK!! i love how yours came out!!! I recently learned how to do 2 on 2 circ. thats how i do all my fingerless gloves ive made. i get SSS bad!
They are beautiful! :)
