Finished Mom Me Socks!

Remember these socks? Originally started for my mom, for her upcoming birthday, the became mine after I ripped the leg for the second time. Oh, and after she said the colors looked like someone threw up the dye on it (she didn't know I was knitting them for her).
Their path has been one of revision, ripping and rebirth. Both socks have been ripped, at least once after being almost finished, all the way back to before the heel.
Yarn: 1 skein Koigu in a very bright "Rainbow Puke" (which I looove) and about 15 grams of a matching pink
Needles: Susan Bates US0 dpns
Pattern: Wendy's Toe Up, although their not identical: one has a pink toe, the other has a bigger pink cuff.

The rainbow puke is gorgeous! I'll have to keep my eye out for that - but I'll try to remember not to call it that in the store.
