Back in April, I started a pair of toe up socks for WM.
I learnt a long time ago to knit two socks at the same time to save gauge issues later!
I finished the first sock but the cast off was too tight so I put the sock away.
At that time, the toe and the foot of the second sock had been knitted.
Due to workshop I am tutoring next week, I thought I should unpick that too-tight cuff and finish it. In the process, I discovered the second sock which I hadn't even thought about.
Both socks were finished after dinner last night and so the colours may be a little "off" due to the use of artificial light and flash.
WM is very happy with the socks; they fit perfectly - which I guess is the point of knitting socks from the toe up!

So, on Tuesday night I turned the heel and knitted most of the leg.
Yesterday I finished the leg and knitted the cuff.
