Warm feet for me

The socks are done, washed and ready to wear. I'm very happy with them and I definitely want to make more. They are toe up, using Judy's Magic cast on, 60 stitches around on a 3mm Addi lace needle, magic loop. I used this as the starting point for the heel, fudging the number of stitches a bit. The cast off is the Norwegian cast off and I used a 3.25mm needle for it.


The two skeins of singles just before I wound them ready to cast on for the cushion cover. A swatch showed that a 5mm needle should be fine for this. I only did about three rows yet, and it feels lovely and soft to knit, but then BFL is supposed to be!
