More Horcrux Socks



I liked the Horcrux pattern from Six Sox KAL so much that I decided to knit myself a pair. I'm using Silkwood Hand Dyed Yarns in the Spangles colourway. Again I forget where I bought the yarn.

Should have done a tension swatch. I knew I wanted them to be smaller than the one's I knit for Alice and the yarn is a slightly lighter weight so I'm knitting them on 2.5mm needles instead of 2.75mm but with the same number of stitches. They are coming out way too small for me - I probably need another 10 or 15 stitches. Luckily Jack's daughter Robyn has dinky feet and is a massive Harry Potter fan so she is going to be the recipient of these socks.
