Yarn: Studio Avenue Six Self Striping Sock Yarn in 186 2 DK Pink, 4 Purple
Needle: size 1.5 circular
Date Started: July 16, 2011

Comments:I started these over the summer and just got around to finishing the second sock. My first afterthought heel. I like that it means I can keep knitting without stopping for the heel flap and decreases. I do not think the fit is as good though because it is hard to guess the length. A fun experiment, but I think I will stick with my usual heel flap.

Yea, I don't like afterthought heels either. Very pretty socks.
