my socks arrived!!!
They are lovely!!!! They are made in cygnet yarn, one I havent tried yet, and a lovely plummy colour. They have a pretty cable up the back, please excuse the bad photography for that, but its not easy taking a picture of the back of your own foot unless your a yoga expert perhaps. The toes had me very interested too, I tend to be on the boring side and use the same technique over and over for toes. These socks have shaping on one side so my socks actually have a left and right!!
They are from the lovely sarah at yoshimiknits.blogspot.com. She was a complete sweetheart throughthe whole swap, stayed in touch and asked lots and lots of questions too. Thanks sarah and please stay in touch I have loved chatting with you xxx
I will have more news later on today including an esty monday and updates to the shop.

ooh thanks yoshimi, they do fit rather nicely, I am sure I will have a play with them at some point :)
They are great socks, I really like the cable at the back. I have used Cygnet yarn and it was nice.
Lovely socks :-)
Love the cable. I've never tried cabled socks, yet got some from my pal as well. Now I want to try some!
Wow, those turned out so lovely! I love how they look so simple from the front, but then have that beautiful cable in the back!
oh your socks knit for you are very pretty indeed! love them.
i also love the colors of your pirate influenced sock yarn int eh posts below. the attention to detail of the colors is great!
i need to lay off the tea so i can stop using the exclaimation points.
Very pretty!!!!
Ooh, fab socks! Great job to your pal--those slanted toes are cool. I'll have to bookmark that link and try it out someday.
