Blue Diamond Socks

I have been working on and off on these socks since I made my November Bakers Dozen Square with this pattern. Still loving it, just working on some other things too. Hope to get back to these and my colorwork socks soon!

I had casted on the ribbing to this sock with a plan sock in mind. Just something simple to knit and I badly need some more hand knit socks. I only have two and they are a few years old now. Any who, after making the November square, I loved the pattern so much, I knew this yarn, these socks, were meant to be made with this pattern.




Doesn't it look lovely?






Alas, I forgot that I had cast these one with negative ease in mind since they were going to be plain socks. After this point, I tried them on and couldn't get them over my heel! So I frogged what I had, redid my numbers and cast on again. I also altered the ribbing section so they flow seamlessly into the diamond pattern. Unfortunately, I have only worked on them a little since then.





Cannot wait to get back to them though. I know they are going to be the perfect pair of socks! In fact, I have more sock knitting in mind, but I shall wait until I can get to at least the ones' I have already casted on for!! :)
