Can't stop the sock

Another pair done:



Pattern: Charade by Sandra of I May Be Knitting A Ranch House
Yarn: Madelinetosh Sock, colorway Robin's Nest
Needles: size 1 bamboo dpns

I modified the pattern slightly by knitting the socks toe-up, with 56 stitches in total and short-row heels. I didn't center the herringbone rib pattern on the instep of the first sock, but I did on the second. I can't tell which is which in the photo above. That's fine with me.

Here's a side view so you can see the heel better:



(I am doing some kind of weird yoga pose for this picture. Let's call it the Sideways Sock.)
