When we first saw this colorway, it looked like this....
4 oz. of superwash merino by Two if By Hand
After 1 bobbin, it looked like this...
Spin 2 bobbins together and it looks like this....279 yds of sport/fingering weight.
After a while, it became these......Which didn't fit, but I kept knitting...
Then after a lot of denial....they looked like this again...
Then a few months later we saw this....
Then we saw this picture....
Drying in the afternoon AZ sun in like a few hours if that!
We have toe pics!
You can't see it but one of these toes had to have surgery...yeah I forgot with Wendy's toe up patterns, I often have to start my heels earlier than my usual 7.5 inches...that wasn't fun to pull out and reknit...
and heel pics!
The usual ribbing bind off of JSSBO
And here is the finished project! If I didn't love the colorway so much, I wouldn't have these finished socks!
Whiz Banging Socks
Sport weight toe up socks with gusset heel by Wendy Johnson
US 2.5 circs knit ML one at a time... much better!!
No mods....
Best part of toe up socks....using almost every little bit of yarn!

I love your socks Zonda!
Wow, your spinning is really nice! Especially love the colors & the socks look fantastic!
I love it when there is only a dribble of yarn left!
