Hi! The herringbone socks look great! I’m thinking of knitting some myself, so it’s nice to hear of and see a success story. *Traipsing off to examine the stash for suitable yarn*

Pretty sock! Does the stranded knitting reduce the elasticity of the sock? That would be one reason for me to think twice about it. It was one reason why I didn’t warm to the Jaywalker chevron pattern.

Those socks are truly beautiful! Love the herringbone pattern and the colors! Those are my favorite colors!

I like your sock. I tend to not one to do any type of colorwork on socks, so while I think it looks good, I don’t want to do it.

Your sock looks great! I have only seen one other finished pair (by sockpron, Aija). Her’s are really cool as well!

I’m not sure why people shy away from this pattern other than your ideas. I’m all for stranded knitting & I have this in my queue but my man reason for waiting is trying to decide on the right yarn/color combo!

You know, I never paid much attention to that pattern myself, and I’m not sure why, because your socks are looking great! I really like how the afterthought heel looks with the herringbone pattern.
