I finally have socks that fit! Perfectly! (Well, a sock.)

The second sock is up to the heel flap, as I started it while I was working on the other sock.

And I even wrote down what I did, so hopefully it's something I can replicate. Apparently swatching three times was worth it.







Yarn: Shibui Knits Sock, colorway: Spectrum

Thank you everyone who helped out with the great What Needle Should I Use Crisis earlier on...I am *so* excited about these socks you have no idea. Back to work on the other one!

Isn't it great? They have some other really pretty ones, too! *covets*

My first pair of socks was with their yarn in the Marine colorway, and I loved working with it. Might be discontinued but it was really close to what they have listed as Kelp (except no brown and brighter green). I have some Rapids stashed, trying to decide if it will be socks or if it would pair well enough with ivory to be a wedding shalwette someday. In a perfect world (one where you could win the lottery by wishing really hard) I would have a sweaters quantity of Wasabi :)
