Have just finished these, so I am in time for the September socks, phew.

Pattern is Widdershins from knitty.com and the yarn is garnstudio alpaca. I cast off a little too tight so they are a bit hard to get on!!! but very soft and comfy when I do!



Donna

Did you like the pattern Donna, to knit I mean. I had to increase mine to 60 st to accomodate my wide feet and as such had a great deal of faffing when it came to the heel. Sadly they're worn out now but I've an angel on another forum working some magic on them.
