I was inspired by Tanis Gray's Gilmore girls - The official knitting book. The book doesn't include these woollen socks. But it includes the awesome Daily News Hat from which chart column 3 I copied the pattern for the leg part of these socks!
Aren't they fabulous! I used Nako's Purse Sock Plus yarn (75% wool, 25% polyamide) (100g = 200m) in white and grey shades. I really don't know yet is this good yarn or not because the socks I've knit are for the Yule 2025.
I made my 1st ever Diamond Heel for these socks. I've seen many pics of pretty Diamond Heels but I wanted to see how does it work in a stronger and thicker heel. I used the similar knitting that I did in Dutch Heel No1 (trad.). It really doesn't work as a proper boot sock. Meaning if you want to use it in your boot's this is not your choice for the heel. But it works just fine as a warm sock at home during cold and chilly winter days.
