I do like having the toes and heels a different color; I have to be careful to weave in the ends really well because I'm paranoid that the heel will detach. Never happened, but my brain says IT MIGHT. ;)Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890227462052573887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-78199763476912546282019-01-08T14:58:20.583-06:002019-01-08T14:58:20.583-06:00Everything turned out so beautifully!

Your parents are going to get lots of compliments on them!<br /><br />Bravo on trying a new sock technique! I would be getting antsy to see the next color too. And if the wearer's feet/ankles are like mine, they will stretch those thick color bands out in to shorter ones ;) Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03201592937889358953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-71831002706683721712019-01-08T11:28:03.215-06:002019-01-08T11:28:03.215-06:00LOVE love love love your hats...and socks!
