FO: and proof that I cannot photograph socks

I have actually completed another pair of socks! My trick for getting both done is to work from both ends of a ball of yarn. I did section 1 on sock 1, then section 1 & 2 on sock 2, then section 2 & 3 on sock 1, and so on. The only difficult part with this strategy is not getting too tangled when working with the outside end of the ball. But overall, I managed swimmingly.

Pattern: Hedera from Knitty
Janice has also completed a pair, and it's thanks to her that I even looked at the pattern, which is now my favorite sock pattern.
Yarn: Mama Llama Twisted that I got from my seed swap with Tracy (the colors in my photos are truer than the color on the Mama Llama site--a beautiful mix of teals and greens and sand colors....I call them my "Seashore Socks" because they remind me of being on a beach)

They're a little big, because I still haven't exactly gotten the hang of when to start the toe decreases. But I love them all the same, and, as the second picture shows, Remy also approves.

They turned out great!

Isn't that a fun pattern to knit?? I'd almost make another pair, and I NEVER knit a pattern twice!
