In a fit of efficiency I have actually managed to photograph a finished object (well a pair really) only hours after they came off the needles.

This is the yarn I dyed with Supercook food colouring a couple of weeks ago.

It is my usual ribbed sock pattern, with short row heel. This time I tried out yarn over short rows. Again I am having trouble with getting them even, one side is reasonably nice but the other is a bit sloppy. Back to the drawing board on that one, I have another idea to try.

For a quick recap, the yarn is 4ply / sock weight Blue Faced Leicester superwash, from H W Hammand. It is very nice yarn to knit with, and the socks are lovely and comfy (I am wearing them as I type).

I love how these have come out.

I will be interested to see how well the colour lasts, and also how the yarn washes and wears. The yarn is quite smooth but with a small halo.

You can tell how much I love them by the ridiculous number of photographs I have taken 🙂
