Ta-da!
Aren't they cool (if I do say so myself)? I love them! I wish they were mine :) Here's the specs:
Yarn: Knit One Crochet Too Ty-dy Socks, 1 ball in "Grapes", #1745
Needles: 2.75mm 40# circular (for knitting Magic-Loop)
Pattern: Fingering Weight Toe-Up Socks With Gusset and Slip-Stitch Heel (PDF) by Wendy Johnson
To be honest, I really only used the heel portion of this pattern. I started with a Turkish Cast-on, used the above pattern for the heel, knitted up the leg, and finished with a sewn bind-off. That's it!
I have one more gift to give that then I can post about, but in the mean time, I started a new pair of socks! You would think that after knitting 2 pair in about a month, I would be sick of sock-knitting, but I'm really not! I pulled a ball of Silk Garden sock out of my stash and started a new pair!
Well that's all for today, my friends, I'm off to bed! Nighty night!

i love those socks.
