Yikes

Has it really been over a week since my last post? Well, not much been going on. Just work, knit, repeat :)
YAY my 1st full Socktober sock is done.



As usual, Tripsie had to get in on the action.



Its hard to take a picture of your own heel...

Pattern: Take two and call me in the morning socks (Ravelry link). This pattern was featured on the Lime & Violet Daily Chum a while back, and I added it to my que then. It just seemed perfect for the yarn and I love the heel!
Yarn? Wollmeise *squee* in Miss May.
Modifications. I decided to go with the heel as written in the pattern and I'm so glad I did! The toe I followed my usual decrease 4 stitches on every other row, and then did a kitchner seam.
The writer of the pattern was kind enough to message me on Ravelry and let me know that I may do a few less pattern repeats on the foot. I honestly didn't keep track of how many I did, once I was 2 inches from my toes I started doing the decreases.

I love how you speak in tongues to you knit knit followers. That's so cute.

WOLLMEISE is the bomb. It's so purdy.

Your sock looks excellent! The colorway is great and I really like how it striped up.
