I used the photo-tutorial over at MajorKnitter's blog.
The pattern confused me a bit. I didn't understand the 'short row' treatment in the pattern because it's not my idea of a short row. The photo-tutorial made everything clear and simple and totally easy.
I made some mods to the cuffs because I could and I totally ignored the whole eyelets/ties thing because that's just not my style. Too fussy.
The yarn is leftover sock yarn from a million years ago.
Anyone else knitting socks this summer? Or am I it?
I'm nearly at the end of the first sock for what will probably be my only SoS13 pair...long, sad story.

Cute! I always get turned around on sock heels that aren't like my short rows. I use the method Laura showed a million years ago on the cosmicpluto blog. Short rows rock!

I'm knitting socks. Mostly just the first sock of a pair as I cycle through a couple patterns. Time to finish up my 2nd socks.

Of course they're socks. They can't help it if they're tiny.

Those totally count as socks, and it is still summer, so you win! They are supercute! xo

Thank you!
I've started several socks, then ripped them because the yarn wasn't working or I hated the pattern. So, I've knitted at a lot of socks, but not knitted any socks.

If it quacks like a duck...
It has a toe, heel and a leg. That's a sock. Damn cute, too!

They are absolutely adorable! And I am making my way through sock #2. Should have one pair to show for the summer or 2013 period! H

They ARE socks. For little people. Soooo...
At least you're finishing stuff over there.

It's just you. I'm pretty sure. No sock knitting going on here, only LACE and just barely!

Those are so cute:) I have a sock in progress but I cast on a sweater and have been attending to it.
