After finishing up my Tart Berries & Honey shawl I turned my attention to my languishing Boreal socks. Although Bruce thinks my toe pockets are adorable, they are not exactly practical. I also need to get these finished because the next shipment goes out next week. So, I have successfully turned the heel with short rows. I did not do the shadow wraps that everyone was raving about. I tried them but I was getting holes, so I went back to the old wrap and turn, and got no holes. Go figure. I do like the shadow wrap technique, however, it is very cool, and I think it would be very good for shaping clothing (shoulders, darts, necklines...) so I am sure it will be getting used in the future.
