It's true, knitting socks is addictive. Here is the second pair of socks that I have made using the Wiksten pattern from Made By Hand. These are for me! I love the Koigu Painter's Palette yarn, which is just right for socks (it is not so fine that it takes a lifetime to finish a pair). I'm a bit miffed with the toes on this pair, I ended up with a bit of laddering between the decrease stitches (last time the direction of my decreases were the wrong way round, but it worked out fine)so I might try a bit of adjustment next time....

(I think Bruce is keen for a pair of home made socks of his own - seeing as he is sticking his paw in every shot!)
