Steppin’ Up

Let’s all welcome the latest addition to the DPUTiger sock drawer


It’s the Jeweled Steps socks from, of course, the new Cat Bordhi book.


Pattern: Jeweled Steps from Cat Bordhi’s New Pathways Vol. 1
Yarn: Claudia Hand Painted in the Steelers colorway from The Loopy Ewe
Needles: My “standard” US2/2.75mm 16” KnitPicks circs
Started: 20 October 2007
Finished: 14 November 2007
Mods: On the second (left) sock, I left two additional stitches for the leg portion of the program. Should have left four additional. Also altered the “official” pattern slightly via Master Numbers.

Now my only problem is deciding what socks are next on the needles.

Hey, at least it wasn't bad scenery!
