I have made 2 separate socks and had hoped to finish at least one pair completely but haven't managed it so will have to submit these as a mismatched pair Laughing

The one on the left is Trekking XXL and on the right Opal Elemente.



Maybe I'll finish their partners for August Wink

we'll have to see some progress shots for next month pictish, otherwise you could just put them the other way up on the floor (or would that just be the kind of thing I'd do?)  Smile Smile Smile Smile

They look lovely.

I do like those Ali - I was kniting a sock on the way up to Stoke today and was thinking about the opal Petticoat I have in stash....
