Twinkleberry finished

I finished the toe with a skein of similar yarn but slightly different fiber content.  I actually cant tell which sock has the different toe unless I look really close, so that’s a relief.  I’m disappointed I didn’t just try to do the short-row heels on this pair.  I have just never gotten the hang of those heels and really don’t actually LIKE them any better than a standard heel flap and heel, so the incentive just wasn’t there to make it “click” in my brain.  However, the textured eye of partridge heel flap was probably a little bit “much” this time.  It may look different on a foot, but as a flat unblocked sock, I don’t like it this time.  Otherwise, though, this pattern is really a fun knit.  I am actually thinking that it’d be a cool pattern to substitute for EZ’s February baby sweater, and I just might take that project on one of these days.  Next sock project, though is SPM’s “Earl Grey” socks in black.  Yeah – really enjoy challenging my eyesight trying to work a pattern (albeit a small one) into a black anything…but then, that’s how I roll.
