I fancy getting some Tofutsies so can't wait to see how your sock turns out.

Hoorah, not only are socks finished, but I've worked out how to upload the pics to photobucket too!

So, pair of socks in SWTC Tofusies - lovely and soft to work with and gleefully received by my niece!

Worked cuff down, short row heels and finished with a zig-zag bind off.

they are just beautiful. What's a zig zag bind off? Can you post a link to it at all?

Have a look here under the bit about toes. This also describes the method I've used for the short row heels.

What I like about the zig zag bind off is that it's much quicker than kitchener and means you don't change from knitting needles to sewing needles.
