Mirage


These socks were knitted for Heather who has arthritic feet. The leg is shorter than I would do for myself.

I used KnitPicks 2.25mm circs, knitted both at the same time but on different needles.

The yarn is Regia's Mirage, a Kaffe Fasset colourway. I am a little disappointed with the way these turned out pattern wise. The yarn is 75% superwash wool 25% nylon.

I used my own toe up method with my Andersson Heel Mach 2.

I like the colourway of Heather's socks! The other sock pattern--the 5 x 1 rib--is what Jane and I have nicknamed "Colin's rib". I can't believe you finished them so quickly--you were just turning the heel on one of them last week!
