I love little feet

I have finished the Hedera!



Pattern: Hedera by Cookie A
Yarn: Hand dyed Trekking XXL. Colourway: Summer Pudding
Size: Shoe size 3 (UK)
Knit for: Me!
Comments: My first lace socks and my first attempt at hand dying. I adore these socks even though the heel flap is too long so the fit isn't great. I'm not so enamoured with the pooling of the colours but you live and learn!

Having such little feet has many advantages, one being that socks are fairly quick to knit, another is that you have lots of yarn left over:

How cute are these?

I loved this yarn in the ball and I love it in the sock - great work and the weeny socks are super cute :)

Am adding Hedera to my list of socks to knit, great pattern choice.

Great stuff! I'm very impressed that the yarn is hand dyed too!
