Augy's Opal Handpaint inside out socks






These socks look so misshappen off the foot, but fit Augy's foot really well. I think ribbing the insoles is a bad/good idea. A bad idea, becuase it took longer to knit rib than plain stockinette in the round. A good idea because it hugs the foot and provides a better fit.

This is an inside out sock becuase I did a 3/2 rib and garter stitch short row heels and toes and therefor there is no right or wrong side. I was already working on this idea when Socks that Rock came out with their Inside out pattern. STR is more complicated than mine with reversible rib cables. Mine is just ribs and garter. The first picture shows the colors more faithfully than the second. THe yarn is Opal handpaints in GREEN!
