Sock #12 for the Summer of Socks 2008.
Pattern : Vinnland by Becca ComptonYarn: Cherry Tree Hill Supersock Merino in Fuscia
Needles: US1 (2.25mm) Knit Picks 32" circular
Construction: I used Judy's Magic toe for the CO (rather than a short row toe).
This pattern would be better (I think) with a gusset/heel flap, rather than a short row heel, as the sock gets a bit tight over the ankle at that point. This was a fun knit, with long memorizable repeats that make the sock seemingly go so quickly.

now granted...i didn't get 12 pairs done but i'm beginning to slow down too :-) they're great socks though!
SLowing down is good. Those are beautiful and very juicy looking. Maybe when you step down it will be like pressing grapes. ;0)
Ooo -- Lots of socks! You do some lovely work! Hope you don't mind if I add you to my BlogRoll on my blog, so I can keep track of all the sock-goodness!
And the picture of you and your honey -- just perfect! =)
you seem speedy to me -- I have only finished one pair!
Yours are beauties!
12 socks & you are slowing down - that's already a record for me. Anyway, I love the socks - great pattern & you should knit on as I really enjoy reading about your sock knitting.
