do they count?



I have just finished these

I started them a few weeks back and got distracted and tried to finish them before last weekend - knitting camp got in the way.
So here they are sock #? for the sock victim.
Tofusies - on 2.5mm
They are a bit looser than I thought they would be. The gauge didn't really work - perhaps I knitted too small a swatch.



They are out of Sensational Knitted Socks - my favorite and only Charlene Schurch
The 2 x 2 rib which worked a treat
and a partridge heel - all on two circulars

Now for wedding socks.....................one whole year late

I like the striping effect on the socks!

So the wedding socks are now the anniversary socks?

I am having gauge weirdness with my Tofutsies, too. Of course, gauge swatches are filthy little liars, as everyone knows, but they seem to be lying more with the Tofutsies than they ever have before. Very, very odd.
Glad it's not just me!

Very nice socks, BTW. The sock victim is a very lucky fellow.

These are great! I love how they stripe on the foot.

They look great!! Does the wool smell, kind of sea-y?? Did you make swatch in the round?? I have heard that a flat tension square can be different to one in the round.
