Actual KNITTING content!
May I present... Jaywalkers!
Pattern: Jawyalkers, from MagKnits October 2005
Needles: Size 1 Crystal Palace DPNs
Yarn: Vesper Sock Yarn by Julia of Knitterly Things (purchased from kpixie) in color Sweetwater.
I did the bigger size, and they STILL came out way too small for my feet, so I gifted them to an appreciative friend who wears a size 7. I am a really tight knitter, and these are not stretchy socks, so I guess this result was inevitable!
This was a great pattern, though hard to get a good fit. I might attempt a second pair in the hopes that they'll fit my size 9 feet, but then again, might not.

How did you get such perfect striping!
Lookin good! I ended up using size 1.5's to get mine to fit me....
Those are gorgeous! I'm so jealous of the striping!
They are beautiful! I just have the toe to do on my first one...but you've inspired me to eventually do another pair in a striped yarn.
BTW, all the London pix and yarn p*rn are fantastic!! And cheered me up!!
