Lacy Top Slipper Sock
I'll have to speed up my knitting, but with a little luck I just might get the mate to this slipper sock done before Christmas.

I worked up the sock cuff using the Horseshoe Lace stitch from "The Knitter's Bible"; the sock body is from a pattern (very well written) by Lisa Dozier. I used Red Heart Knitting Worsted and No. 5 needles.

Sock experts, please be kind. It's been 20+ years since I've done any sock knitting, except for teensy tree ornaments.

Wow, that's a great sock with a lovely cuff. Your knitting is still beautiful, too. You'll make the other one in time. Good luck!

Thanks, everybody! I'm into the blue on Sock No. 2 and am pretty sure now that I'll make it in time to get the pair wrapped. If my dear d-i-l will agree to let me shoot a pic of her feet in the socks, I will post it.
