Hi! This is my first post, and I wanted to share a photo of my progress so far on my first pair of toe up socks. I have made a few pair (7 or so) cuff down, but wanted to try my hand at something new.
I am using Socks that Rock on size 1 needles, the Lucy colorway. I am using WendyKnits method since the socks are named for her cat. I like how they fit, and they seem like a much smoother knit than cuff down. I also hate picking up stitches, so this avoids that quite nicely.
More assorted sock photos on my blog.

I'm doing the same pattern in the same yarn, but I'm still on the first one and am thinking of doing a stitch pattern on the ankle - yours look nice without so I may not bother now. They look great.
The yarn is pooling much more on the second sock. I like the first one better. A stitch pattern like feather and fan or something might help the color pooling. I still like how they look, the just aren't as striped.
Nice job! I have a skein on the way! :)
