My needles are still smokin'!


I'm so happy - I finished! I had started the first sock and ended up ripping to the snowflakes and changing to a smaller needle. So glad I did, they fit great and after the Christmas knitting was complete, I was able to burn through these! This is my first Sockamania project. I used Knit Picks Essential in Dusk and Bare Superwash for the flakes. I also added a flake on the heel starting on the 10th heel row.

Thanks for the great pattern! I loved seeing all the different versions! Happy New Year to All!

I haven't had time to make these yet, but I love the idea of the snowflake on the heel.
