I finished my Lorna's Laces socks using the KAL Pattern (3x1 rib). The colorway is Child's Play, and I used size 1 needles (Knitpicks Classic circulars).I loved the feel of the Lorna's Laces shepherd sock, and will definitely use it again. I might go down to size 0 needles, and look for a pattern that works well with the striping/variegation of colors.
These were definitely the socks I learned the most with: tinking, lifelines, fixing errors. If you count what I unknit, I am sure I knit an extra sock in there somewhere.
They've been washed and blocked, and shipped off to surprise the giftee. As soon as she receives her package, I'll adjust the date to make it public on the front page of the blog.
Edited to add: LaVerna received them!

Woo Hoo! HOW BEAUTIFUL!!! I aspire to make socks like you. And now I am wondering... what is tinking? Is that suggestive or what! hehehe And do I need to block socks? And where do you get those really adorable sock blockers? Inquiring penguins want to know! :)
