I started these socks for a Jaywalker along with some French ladies at the end of March and finished them last night.

In progress picre


Finished picture


They were knit with two Knit Picks circular needles (size 2) and Opal Feelings yarn (#1705). The colours remind me a lot of Sweet Tarts; those sweet and sour candies I was so fond of when I was younger.
