Finished socks....in the St. nick of time!



These are the socks that I wanted to finish in time for our us to open gifts with my parents. The second sock was completed in the wee hours the day before we opened.

My mom loved them and tried them on before they were completely dried and blocked.
We've had a great visit and will be on our way back to NV tomorrow morning.

They turned out great! I bet your mom loved them!
As for the toe up socks - you can use any provisional cast on. I used a crocheted cast on (super easy). You do have to learn a new bind off, though, otherwise they will be too tight to fit around the heel. I learned EZ's sewing cast off.
Safe travels today.
