I really needed a kick up the bum with these socks

Back in April they looked like this



By May they looked like this



But there they languished until I needed a pair of pink socks for October - and now they look like this!



One sock seems a little more snug than the other - must try not to leave it quite so long between socks - I have a sneaking suspicion I've change needles and the cast off wasn't quite the same, but hey, they're done!!

Yarn was Posh February sock club and the pattern is Anni's Falling in Love socks from Magknits.
