waving lace socks

Behold! My many-months-heavy-duty project!! The Waving Lace socks!!!.............completed only one side!!! hahahahaha stupid.

Yea cos I got stuck @ the heels part since I'm not familiar with knitting socks and couldn't figure out the "knit in short rows" part of the pattern. sent out a SOS call to my knitting guru and awaits patiently.

i won't say it's hard knitting this sock. it's not. takes a bit of time but like Den said, it does make me feel smarter after completing one hahahahahaha and i liked the result altho i think it's a bit too big (i used the wrong needle size) BUT, my calf muscle..(due to my erm...active childhood...) is pretty big so my sock a bit stuck @ the calf area.

just to make sure it fits the heels right.

toes peeking through.

as you can see, the sock is ALMOST DONE! and it looks gorgeous. the sock. not my feet. *coughs*

a look at the completed sock in it's un-worn state.

i havent' block the piece. was thinking of complete the other sock before i block both of them and till then it's currently still incomplete..

tada! i'm modelling my pretty feet in my pretty socks. i'm so proud of myself i think i can explode.
