I also finished the Charade socks before holidaying, too.

There are good things and bad things about these socks.

Bad: The yarn, as I mentioned before, is a bit on the thin side, so the socks are rather holey.

Good: I love this colour.

Bad: The toes are a bit square-ended, which looks wierd.

Good: I love the herringbone rib stitch. It never got old, even though it was a simple two row repeat. I want to knit another pair of socks using it.

Bad: They came out a bit short, but that’s my fault. I find it hard to estimate sock height when I knit top down.

Good: Despite everything I didn’t like, they fit and look good.
