Minding the Gap

I know I said I'd never do another after-thought heel but what can I say?  I lied.  

I finished my Minding the Gap socks and I love them!  The striping yarn is the drool inducing Trailing Clouds Mind the Gap.  The yarn is fantastic with a nice tight spin on it.  I wish I could say the same for the black yarn.  It's Simply Sock Yarn's store line and it had a lot of frays in it.  I just hope it stands up to wear.

Both Question Boy and Purple Girl claimed the leftover striped yarn from these socks.  I'm trying to figure out how to get two more pairs out of this yarn.  I was very careful to use as little of the stripes as possible, hence them not matching.
