One pair of Esther socks for my daughter. A late Christmas present which she loves - phew!
This pattern foxed me at first, and I would definitely recommend strong, sharp-pointed needles rather than bendy splitty wood – rather too much “through the back of the loop” work for delicate pins! If I was knitting them again (never say never) I would use a more 3D-yarn: something like Jitterbug would be ideal to show off the stitch pattern.
Since finishing these I have been working on my second Clessidra sock. I completed the first one several months ago and either my memory was playing tricks, or my skills have improved in that time, as I am finding this quite a straightforward knit! I hope to finish it next weekend, ready to cast on something new for my next waiting room session.
