Love 'em!  Gorgeous colours in that yarn. The pattern looks very similar to the Jaywalker, but a bit more feminine. Are the increases made with yarnovers?
I'm up to having two pairs of socks on the go at once now, but then I get all flustered when deciding which one to work on.

I think they look very similar to the Jaywalkers too CL. And unfortunately, if there are any shrimps and bananas here they get snaffled rather quickly

Ali its a really simple and quick knit. The pattern is just made up of 2 rows:
1st row: K1, yo, K6, K3tog, K6, yo
2nd row: Knit
I'm just picking up the instep now so should have this first one finished soon

Thanks for that! Looking forward to seeing more of them.
I fancy some of these for myself. The fabric should be a lot more forgiving than Jaywalkers—essential for my chunky legs.

Looks lovely, the colours are really pretty. Hope you manage to get both pairs sorted out, toe up socks isn't something I've tried, it's on my list though
