Climbing Jasmine Socks - Finished!

I finished up the second Decadent Dark Sock Club kit last night.  This is another Renee Leverington/Goddess Knits offering.  Are you noticing a theme here?  I am still having some trouble with the toe - getting the Kitchener stitch to come out looking clean.  It seems especially tricky with these darker yarns, and it is pretty much impossible to spread things out.  I have even tried putting a darning ball in the toe.  But I am sure that with practice I will gain proficiency.  I know I could just switch to toe up socks and avoid the whole issue, but I don't like giving up on a technique.  The yarn is Decadently Dark Decadent Sock 2, in Decadent Jade.
