I knitted these using a pure Merino yarn that consists of 2 ends of Merino and 1 end of SW Merino. This is what gives it the tweed effect when dyeing as the superwash takes up more dye very quickly. It has 400m/100g. I dyed the yarn myself.I used my own Andersson Toe Up Construction Method, with the Andersson Heel Mach II (revised).
The tools I used were two Chiao Goo 2.5mm/60cm circulars. I knitted them both simultaneously so that both were finished at more or less the same time.I alternate the socks every 10 rounds.

Are you last two socks paterns available here on your website.
That is a huge color difference between regular merino and SW! I didn't realize SW responded so differently to dyeing. I'll have to keep that in mind.
Love the socks! It is a little miraculous how nicely the pooling is similar on both of them. Great colors, great design.
