just about "blinged" out

finished these on february 22nd but wanted them to have a wash and block to look their prettiest!

bling from 50 socks/50 states


panda silk with lots of beady magic
us 2.25mm needles
beads all the way down the heel flap
and the front to the toes
added extra beads to center lace motif
and modified heel flap to match the toe
(and yes, i have to change my own pattern because i can't help myself)

i think i have enough bling on these now. =P

ice dancing with some olympic spirit!

after much hm'ing and huh'ing about which shawl pattern to knit, i finally settled on knitting...

bling!
panda silk in ivory #3204
with pinkish-lavender beads


adding extra bling in the center ala etownknitter! beads all the way down the heel and the instep! i am so bad that i can't even knit my own pattern without changing something. i extended the center motif down the flap so it now matches the toe pattern. i am almost done with the first sock!

i am not sure if i over blinged these but oh well! they sure will be sparkly!
