HELTER SKELTER


I used the Andersson Construction Method, with the 1 x1 ribbed gusset and the Andersson Heel II, revised. Knitted toe up, the leg knitted in 3 x3 ribbing.
I used Judy's Magic Cast On and Jenny's Surprisingly Stretchy Cast Off.

I knitted these using 2.25mm needles(circular Addi Lace). The yarn is from Knitmans Kitchen and is 80% British Falklands merino 20% Nylon (High Twist) 365m / 100g

Hi, Colin,
Beautiful socks, beautiful yarn.

I'm cold. One of my wonky relatives decided we must have Easter at the beach and I'm just about frozen.

Hot tea and a warm woolen shawl will fix me up.

Colin, Those are some gorgeous socks. I really like how the bight blue pops out fromthe rest of the sock.

Those socks are fabulous. Like you, I love pooling, and they pooled perfectly.
