The first sock is done! I had a mild panic earlier in the week that I would run out of yarn, so I bought a skein of the same yarn in a solid colourway to make contrasting heels and toes and I think it’s worked beautifully. I love the ribbed pattern, with the cross stitches. And sock number two will have them going in the other direction which adds a bit more excitement than knitting the same sock all over again.

That is coming out wonderfully. Do you have a leg form in the sock? (And if so, where did you get one? It really shows the sock off well)
yes she has legs, they are splendid legs arent they for sock showing
I think thats a great sock I LOVE the colours and the pattern
Lovely sock Bronte, looks like we have both been having panics over running out of yarn this week!
Nice socks. I really like the contrasting heels and toes.
Love it! I’ll have to try out that pattern. Do you think it could look good with striping yarn?
looking really good Bronte. You’ve picked the contrast colour really well
I love these. The colors are great together.
Ooh, those are delicious! Good enough to eat. *licks screen*
Love the socks! I have often thought about trying the contrasting toe and heel – it looks so fantastic. Your sock buddy is quite lucky.

Fabulous socks! Love the stitch pattern and the contrast heels/toes. Great job.
I love the contrasting heels and toes. I need to get more creative and start doing the same on my socks…
gorgeous!
The colours go so well together. I like the way you are going to knit them symetrically!
Those are some fierce looking socks. Well done! I love the colour choice, and the pattern. And the very artful photography. I need to get myself some disembodied legs (and a tree) so I can take such nice pictures!
