my first holiday knit would be these rainbow socks for my niece with the short row heels from h*ll! i must have knit the heel on the left sock at least 15 times if not more (5 days worth of knitting) before i finally got a heel i could live with. the right sock took me no less than 3 tries. funny, the yarn survived all that torture.

deborah norville serenity in aquamarine

and to make life even harder for myself, i decided that the socks had to be mirrored. yes, i did.
