After she saw a photo of my finished pair of Hedera, um, more than two years ago, Billie Jo asked if she could have a similar pair in grey for herself. It took me this long to get around to it, but I finally had the perfect yarn in Cephalopod Yarns Skinny Bugga! from the Grey Ombre Set, a beautiful, silvery shade. I estimated the size based on her shoe size, but I'm not 100% sure if these are the correct size. The pattern is mercifully stretchy, but that won't help if they are too large. Let's hope they fit!

Nice socks! I should retry this pattern. First time I tried it, I changed my mind because the stitch pattern did not seem interesting to me!
ReplyDeleteThe stitch pattern can get a bit monotonous, but it is easy to memorize, at least!
DeleteI really like the Hedera pattern and this pair is the nicest I've seen. Gorgeous!

Thank you for the kind words :)
DeleteOhhhhhhh. That pattern has never really appealed to me before, until now. The color is so lovely.
ReplyDeleteIt is surprising how such a seemingly modest color (or non-color) can make such an impression, it seems perfect for this pattern :).
DeleteThey're beautiful! I just knitted the same socks but the stitch definition of the yarn I used isn't too great; they don't look nearly as great as yours do!
