Finished up my rpm socks this morning. In an homage to Aija Goto's image from Knitty. . .
. . .pictured with my Smiths 12" singles that I've had since high school.
Pattern: rpm from Knitty
Yarn: Socks that Rock Lightweight, color Carbon
Needles: size 1 40" circular, magically-looped
Modifications: I followed the directions for the large size but used smaller needles and a finer yarn. I made short-row heels using my usual method rather than following the pattern's directions.
I went with grafted rather than round toes, which apparently smell interesting
These turned out pretty great!

Suzy has been bugging me to keep an eye out for Smiths records while I'm digging through the creates. No dice! Tis hard to part with a good LP.
