Early Spring Socks Finished!

Here are the Early Spring Socks, shown with early spring flowers. I love the heel in this pattern. It doesn't require picking up any stitches and it fits and looks good. I used a the tubular bind off which I liked the results but it took me forever to do.
Here again, in the tulips. These socks were done in Knitpicks dancing, with the pattern Early Spring Socks. I used the Turkish cast on but otherwise followed the pattern.

Early Spring Socks

I have been knitting these socks appropriately named Early Spring Socks. I am knitting them in Knitpicks dancing. They are coming out nice. I used the turkish cast on that I always use but I did try the heel that is written in the pattern. I'll have to see comfort wise if I like it. It did knit up good. I am doing them at the same time on 2 circulars instead of on double pointed.

How I managed the yarn


This is how I managed the 2 balls of yarn without tangles or cat ingestion. I got these bottle "cozies" at Albertsons in the $1.00 bin. I used them for the 2 socks on 2 circular needles and for the double stranded clapotis. They work great!

Finished Socks


Here are my finished Socks!! They are the 1st ones I have done 2 at a time on circular needles. I wore them all day and they stayed up even when I ran on the treadmill. I combined techniques, using a turkish cast on, the heel flap from Diamante did my own little fancy ribbing on the top and used a russian bind off.
