Rites Leftover Socks

It had been quite a while since I had knit anything for myself, so since I had a bunch of leftover self striping yarn from the Rites of Spring socks, I decided to to just that.

Yarn Supplier: Mind's Eye Yarn

Needles: US 1 / 2.25 mm

At this point, I admit I have no idea what yarn I used in these except that they a standard ratio wool nylon sock yarn and that I bought them from the lovely folk at Mind's Eye Yarn.

I knit these as socks toe-up with magic 8 cast-on, forethought heel,2X2 rib and sewn bind-off. Also I used a contrast yarn used for toes, heels and tops of cuff in order to extend the striping yarn as far as possible. Ultimately I probably didn't need to, since I have small feet, but I still like the look.
