thanks Carolinne! Very Happy

Oh, the colour is utterly gorgeous, may have to get some. Hadn't thought of doing socks in that yarn.

That colour is fab! Right up my street. The Magic Loop technique looks complicated enough without doing two at once. Shocked

Well done!

I saw this pattern in my Cat Bordhi book and love it - and yours look great Carolinne. I'm struggling with two circs (got the method OK just dont know if I like it) at the moment and some people have suggested the magic loop method. Might have to give it a go, but one at a time methinks. Very Happy

Your feb socks look great Carolinne! The leafy parts in the pattern look really good. Sean and I are excited to see you guys in August, maybe Mia's socks will be done by then Rolling Eyes

I'm thinking of doing these socks as my next sock project but they look extremely complicated, knitted on US 0/2 mm needles and there are cable crosses on almost every row Shocked

Since it has taken me almost 6 months to do 3/4ths of one plain stocking stitch sock, im expecting to be done by sometime in 2009, maybe 2010!

That would be great! I've never been to stonehenge before, i wonder if it is as impressive in real life as it looks in pictures. Sorry i hijacked your feb sock thread to talk about our trip!
