February Socks

This is my first KAL and I'm so excited! Here are my Feb socks. I knitted a sweater for my sister and told her that, if she was a good girl, she'd get matching socks! So here she is modeling her new socks. I used Yarn Art Crazy Color, a wool/acrylic blend--nice to work with.

I picked a pattern from Charlene Schurch's Sensational Knitted Socks-- "Chevron Patterns for Self-Striping Yarn." Love that book--Lot's of info and options. This was my first "bullseye" heel and I found it very easy.

I tried to get a closeup of the pattern. It's an eleven stitch reapeat.
