    Sox on Steroids.

    I have finally finished my first pair of self striping socks, and I can tell knitting those stripes is quite addictive. Unfortunately there is not that much  self striping sock yarn hand dyed in Germany. I have purchased most of my skeins in the US, UK or Finland.

    Although the fish lips kiss heel is the first short row heel that works for me (no wraps, no gaps, no sloppy stitches) stripey yarn does funny things to its appearance. The one bumerang row between the two halfs of the heel sometimes looks like a gap because of the color contrast. Note to myself: knit toes and heels in a different color next time.

    Colorway: Helix
    Pattern: Ribbed vanilla socks, toe-up with a fish lips kiss heel
