hehe the problem with makers everywhere..'I should have started earlier' lol. Your socks are awesome! I love the toe up version as they always look so much neater in the finished product. Up to this point, I haven't ever done any colorwork knitting but is something on my radar for this coming year. Isn't it true that there is always something new to learn, be it new construction, pattern, technique...hope I have enough brain cells left to accomodate all the things I want to learn LOL
