I finally finished my Norwegian Stockings! I love them. I could have made them a little taller for full knee socks but I was afraid I would run out of yarn. It turns out there would have been enough.
I did change the heel flap design a bit because I didn't like how the gusset pick up stitches pulled from the heel flap.
I am thrilled with how these turned out. They will be great winter socks because they are double thick with the yarns carried on the back.
I almost want to wear them inside out!
