We haven't had time yet today for a photo shoot, so this will have to do for now.
As you could probably tell from the previous post, I did these two-at-a-time, from the toes up. I started with Judy's Magic Cast-on. I did short-row heels, because they are the easiest heels I know for toe-up socks. To make the top half of the legs wider without messing up the stitch pattern, I switched to a larger needle, which totally changed the way the colors pooled. I really like how that part looks more evenly striped, unlike the strange pooling that happened in the feet and bottom half of the legs. I finished off with Jeny's Surprisingly Stretchy Bind-off, and it lived up to its name!
Angel helped me out by stretching the top of the sock so I could get a picture. ☺ I'm certain Kitty will have no problems getting these socks on! Now if I could just find a caston that's this stretchy, for when I do top-down socks....
