FO: Groom’s socks

Welll… I guess I should have as much faith in myself as you guys do.

Several of you said I could complete the Groom’s socks by the end of the week and you were right…

I got the heel and the bulk of the foot done Wednesday and Thursday night, and Saturday morning I finished up the stripes and the toes!

For a quick recap. Yarn: Alley Cat in Carrot, and Alley Cat BFL in Raisin. Worked over 72 stitches with basic sock math for heel and toe. I added the graduated stripes at top and bottom just to give the socks a little more pizzazz.

I’m very pleased to have them done, and even more pleased that I got a good start on the bride’s.

As you can see, I’m reversing the colours for some matchy-non-matchy fun! Twenty-four days left to get this pair done!

    Yay for meeting your goal. Never doubted it. The groom’s socks are wonderful! Love your idea with the matchy-non-matchy socks.

  2. I knew you could do it! Nothing gets me going more than telling myself that I can’t do something or setting an impossible deadline. There’s something perversely fun in it.
