Bandelier Socks Turn into Mitts



I was so busy knitting to see what the design would look like for the Bandelier Socks (from the current issue of Interweave Knits) that I neglected to check to see if it will stretch over my heel. It won't so this will magically morph into a pair of fingerless gloves. That actually works out better because the socks would likely only last me a few months (I'm very hard on socks) but as gloves they'll last years.

The colors of Knitpicks' Palette I'm using are in order of appearance: Blue, Purple, Mint, Marine Heather, Mist, Sky and Eggplant. I'll get a better photo of the actual colors once I finish the gloves.
