but saying that I love the heel on it (basically an unwrapped short row heel) as the main thing I don't like about knitting socks is picking up the stiches along the heel flap, I already knit the Jill Vosburg short row heel toe up socks but now I can combine it with the two circular needles and two socks at a time idea and I might actually knit a few more socks.
I also managed to do a little work on some experiments for my next kit design,

still needs a little work yet but like the colours.

I also recieved two more packages this morning (I told you I had a bad time at the beginning of the week, the first is some more patchwork fabric from ebay. A real bargin with the exchange rate.
