Halfway There

This is my version of the Noughts & Crosses socks. I've only finished the first one, so far, but I should have the second one done by Sunday. I don't like doing colour knitting so I changed the pattern to making purl sts for the chart instead of another colour. I know the pattern isn't as visible this way but I still like the result and I am enjoying the knitting as opposed to tearing my hair out if I had used the two colours.

love love love this idea...I might have to give that a try as socks are my traveling projects and I am not certain the color knitting will translate that well.

Very clever idea, wish I had thought of it myself! Love your socks, and the color is great!!

Wow, how cool. I never thought of that. It looks fantastic and a great alternative if you don't like 2 colour knitting.

Oh I love them. I may make another pair in a single color. It is the same yet different. Great Idea.
