Dorothy And Her Socks

Friday night, I finished Dorothy's socks - just in time for her Saturday visit.
Yarn - Regia Flusi
Needles 2.25mm
I cast on 68 stitches and worked a 2x2 rib for 2 inches. Then deleted 2 stitches to make a multiple of 6 and worked a 5 x 1 rib down the leg and on the top of the foot.

Remember me saying that I chose the yarn because it 'looked' like Dorothy? Cheerful and fun-loving? Here's what I meant. This is Dorothy, modelling her new socks.

    I've never met Dorothy, and I'm pretty sure I would really like Dorothy...

    Dorothy looks like my kind of gal - and I love the socks!
