I've been cheating a bit on these....had only 75grams left of the green yarn, so I downsized to 56 stitches, and did the pattern only twice, down the front and down the back. Knit a short row heel, instead of the heelflap. Still didn't have enough yarn;-), so the toes are in a different green- and there was enough leftover for a pair of fingerless mitts. They will be a Xmas present for a skinny teenager....
It's a great pattern, and I hope to use it again sometime!
Yarn: Viking Frøyagarn, 2-at-a-time, magic-loop, needles 2.5mm. Quick, fun and pretty!
Remember these? I said it would also make great mittens and hat? Well, I frogged the hat, waaaayy too big, but the mittens are okay. So this is another set into the giftbasket.
Thanks again for a great pattern, Tama:-)

That's a great idea, to make fingerless mittens of it.
I love your colors; great looking socks!
The snow mittens are so pretty. Almost makes me wish I lived somewhere cold so I could wear them.
Very nice job! Love the sock/mitten combinations!
Wow! Those look Great! Love the giftbasket set, great idea! Maybe I should start putting things aside for Christmas gifts too. My sock drawer is getting too full....no its not, I love opening it up and seeing all the beautifull colors and patterns. Never had so many sock in my life. LOL
