I have been hiding these for a while but the postman has done his job and they have arrived at a Graveyard in Surrey. After mailing them I realised that I had (as usual) neglected to take proper photos so here is all I have…

Baudelaire

Pattern: Baudelaire, by Cookie A.

Yarn: Knitwitches Sock Yarn (75% wool / 25% polyamide) I can’t find the label but I’m guessing the colour is pink :-P.

Modifications: I tweaked the top of the sock a bit to have the pattern flow neatly into a 2×2 rib. All that was necessary was to do a 3 st cross with the cables at each side.

This was my first toe-up heel flap sock and Cookie’s instructions are beautifully clear. I will definitely be using this method again on a toe-up sock, and will probably knit myself some Baudelaires in the future too.
