A pair of Gnomes, garden ones at that!
Hehe...no pointy hat or beard though!
They have a pair of heels, not a bad color match either!
Of course we gotta have the toe pic! Um..er..they do look a bit strange though ;)
As you can see, I'm a bit "particular" with self-striping yarns, I really can't let them be, I "have" to make them match as much as possible.
Of course, JSSBO!
They loved visiting my garden
Gnomey Socks
sKNITches Syncopation in Garden Gnome
2.5mm circular, ML of course :)
3 x 1 rib with afterthought heel in Cherry Tree Hill Supersock in Bark (I really didn't like the base of this particular skein. I have a few other skeins of this brand of yarn and like the base. This is way too skinny for me! Oh well, it works for the socks though :)
Knit for SAM 10 and sKNITches Summertime KAL oh and just to wear too :)
Happy August!

Great socks!I admire your tenacity to get the stripes to match. I'm never successful with this so I go out of my way to not have mine to match. Either way socks are great knitting fun!
Damn, until you didn't point out I haven't seen boobs in toes! Damn again!
But stripes are really lovely!
Amazingly matchy matchy! Nicely done.
Wow they are bright and cheery!
Wow! Fabulous job matching up the stripes! What a perfect name for them. They certainly do evoke garden gnomes.
Those are awesome! And wow, great job matching up the stripey goodness!
Amazing how you matched up the stripes. They don't always behave well.
i cannot get over how well you matched those stripes up. well done!
Very gnomey indeed! Now lets hope the laundry sock gnomes don't steal them!
Those are exceptionally awesome socks. Go, you!
So so colour and simple
