They will be fabulous socks Franney!!! I love the delicate shades on the first!! The cables on the second (Rattlesnake Creek pattern looks great) and the cheekiness of the colour on the third.

Thankyou Gilraen
Right then, another photo update:
Lavendula: Didn't really enjoy the short row heel but i must say it does fit well, not shallow like a lot of them are BUT i should have done more short rows than the pattern calls for as the heel is just too big. If i don't frog these they are definitely going to a new home. Kind of happy as i do like making things for other people but also kind of sad as i don't think there will be enough yarn to make myself a pair 
Allsorts: Like i said before, plodding on! Loving these socks so much, just watching the striping is so entertaining  I just want to knit them into one looooooong tube just so i can watch the colours come out  
Finally my favouritest! I don't think i could  them any more than i already do...
And another just to show how perfectly the striping made itself when i had done the heel flap, turn and picked up the gusset stitches and then gone back to knitting in the round...
Why didn't i knit multiple socks before? I'm loving it!

*tutting to self*
For some reason i thought KLB and said Murdo instead!
Ah, i was going to suggest maybe doing a mini-swap as i'm not in the September swap but if you're already in it you won't want to play twice... will you?
