Felici Pebbles Finished.
A little bit of January success.Felici Pebbles for The Adored One. I used WendyKnits square toe cast on, worked the pattern from Ann Budd's sock book - crossed cables, following the formula from Crazy Toes and Heels.When I washed them they stretched out immensely. Yikes.
Those are gorgeous socks. I'll have to take a look at Wendy's square toe method. Also, do you use Queen Kahuna's method for other parts of the sock, or just her formula for crossed cables? I have her book but never have done much with it yet. Keep thinking I will.
I use Wendy's toe because TAO and I have wide feet (especially the toe box) then follow Queen Kahuna through the foot, gusset and heel then do what ever the pattern calls for in the leg. This method gives the best fit that I've found for TAO.
