Huzzah! I made it! These poor poor beautiful Hederas are FINALLY done!! Of all the projects I entered into the Ravelympics, these are definitely the ones that deserved to cross the finish line. I have no idea why I mercilessly have shoved these to the back of the bus these past 4 months and 23 days (yes dudes, your math is correct. I cast the first sock on April 1, and that's no April Fool's joke).Clearly I did not knit these as written. Basically the lace pattern for Hedera fit perfectly into my basic sock pattern, so that's what I did. These were done toe up with a short row heel. The yarn is Lorna's Laces in the Devon colorway, which while it did pool in the legs mostly, I will forgive. The colorway is simply enchanting and I love it with all my heart.
I can't wait to wear these socks!!

Awesome!!! Congrats- those are a great color and look super comfy!
Yay!! Congratulations...they are b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l :)
Every pair of socks I knit now has to be toe up...guess I'm hooked. Your toe-up hedera's came out great :)
Hurray! That has to be THE longest you've ever taken on a pair of socks....You've got to stop letting that "work" thing get in the way of knitting....
