Experiment Socks

Experiment Socks

Materials: Lana Grossa's Meilenweit Cotton Fantasy; US size 1 circular needles (2)

Finished: May 23, 2005

I call these "Experiment Socks" because I was trying out 3 different techniques. Both socks have short row heels, the first time I have done those. The sock on the left was worked top down, and features a decreased toe where you get to 7 sts, then pull your working yarn through the remaining sts. The sock on the right was worked toe up, casting on 10 sts, picking up sts from the back loop of the cast on, and then increasing until desired width was reached. I like this toe better, and I am sure I will do it again!
