Start with a Finish!

 The Solar Socks are finished!
Don't they complement the impatiens?!
I knit these toe-up and ended with ribbing that continued the pattern of the knit stitches

This is knit with a Hawthorne HandPaint fingering weight yarn that was discontinued.
I used # 1 needles over 64 stitches.
