Yet another pair of toe socks, finished:

Blue Moon Fiber Arts®
Socks that Rock® mediumweight

They’re much the same as my green pair, except I made yet another departure from Cat Bordhi’s original Sweet Tomato Heel: the first short-row wedge is composed of increasingly shorter rows, while the second is composed of increasingly longer rows. I like the results:

with a nice mirror-image effect

In other news, registration opens tomorrow for mini-classes at the Madrona Fiber Arts retreat. I’m going to be teaching two mini-classes on Thursday afternoon:

  • Cast-on Trickery, a version of Cast-on Cornucopia that focuses on provisional and tubular cast-ons, with Judy’s Magic Cast-on thrown in for good measure
  • Recover with Drop, Tink, Frog, a version of Disaster Recovery that focuses on three basic recovery techniques that every knitter ought to know, with some “how to prevent mistakes” tips sprinkled on top

I’m looking forward to them!
