ReMake BFL Socks

 These socks are finished and ready for wearing again!   
 Such a nice and warm pair of handspun woolen socks!
I had knit these a year ago (or more)  but did not like the feel of the thicker yarn between my toes!
I snipped the yarn above the toe and unraveled them since this was a toe-up knit originally,
 it was an easy job. 

 When I finished knitting the grey socks on the way home yesterday,
 I picked up the stitches on this pair and knit a regular toe down and Kitchener-ed the stitches closed!   Now I will get to wear this nice pair of cold weather socks!

    That is quite an operation! But the yarn is beautiful so the socks are totally worth it!
