I agree with everyone gilrean they are gorgeous. Been on my radar too but haven't got the pattern yet. I think that book is going on my Christmas list. Health to wear, etc, etc....

Oh Gilraen those are wonderful. You have a real knack for finding the perfect yarn for a project and showing a pattern to perfection.

I've been looking at this pattern admiringly and longingly on Ravelry for a while now.

Those are so lovely!! And now I've *had* to get the pattern.  Do you think it'd be easy to do them top down??

I must be going mad.....

Meant to say would it be easy to do them toe-up.  Toe up is what I always do and I'd have to somehow reverse the pattern.  Hmm.

I don't see a problem, but the twisted rib on the heel is a feature so perhaps toe up with heel flap rather than short-row?? The charts should be reversible Smile
