Off to the frog pond

I spent the morning frogging 2 pairs of socks that I've never really liked. One pair was done in a faux cable with Trekking XXL that has always been a bit on the tight side. I did them toe up and the instep has always been so tight that I had to yank to get them on.

The other pair were with a Lana Grossa yarn that I really loved but the socks shrank a bit when they were washed. So I ripped back the toes and added more but they still were tight in the instep so they got frogged too.

I'm still working on Christmas gifts so reknitting will have to wait but I feel better with them wound into balls instead of sitting in my sock drawer reminding me that they don't fit every time I open it.
