Toe Up Self Spiraling RPM's

I finished my March socks today and took them outside for a little photo shoot. I frogged these socks so darn many times that I must have knit them two and a half times. The gorgeous yarn held up splendidly to the repeated ripping and the colors kept my enthusiasm from fading.

Yarn: Rohrspatz & Wollmeise superwash sock yarn, color "Am Kalten Polar" in medium-deep color saturation
Pattern: RPM from knitty
Needles: Addi double pointed 2.0mm (US size 0)
Modifications: Everything except the purl three knit six in the original pattern. Knit toe up using magic cast on, increases were made so the toe sloped gently, stitch count was a multiple of 9 minus 1 for the left foot, multiple of 9 plus 1 for the right foot to allow for auto spiraling, short row heel with double wraps, knit one purl one sewn bind-off from Vogue Knitting page 51.
