Modern Tall Socks

Last of the Christmas presents have found their way home. I did manage a few pairs of not-for-historical reenacting socks in the process. Nothing too technically interesting, because the self-striping yarn is fun enough on its own. 

Orange and pink tones.

Used the 60 cylinder: hung hems, 3-1 mock ribbing, with short row heels and toes. I did 20 rows on the hung hem (makes a nice ~1" hemmed edge), then another 70 rows gradually increasing the tension, and adjusted the foot length to the recipient's shoe sizes.
