New year, New socks

 It's been a while since I have posted, but I have been knitting away, in between all the other bits of life. 

The socks pictured above are made using leftovers from previous sock projects. To avoid purling all that reverse stocking stitch, the socks were knit inside-out for the most part, with some messing about at the heels and toes to allow me to knit those right side out. 

Some of these leftovers are from socks, knit as gifts for friends & family over 10 years ago. I do sometimes wonder how those gift socks are holding up...
