I have made these socks my bus knitting, which means I get plenty of time, if the bus is not so packed that everyone is squished together!






This one isn't color correct, but it shows the texture wonderfully.  I have to say that I really love the texture in these socks, because the chart is so easily memorized I have not trouble zooming through it and it is easy to do on the bus.


This one is a little more color correct and shows the front of the sock.


Here is the heel flap, just a simple slip stitch heel, was going to use the cable down the heel, but it's too much of a difference in fabric and I think it would feel weird with shoes on.





I am really liking these socks, still into the cable thing. If he likes these, I might knit him a more colorful pair in the future!
