In other news I also finished my York and Lancaster Socks!
The Wars of the Roses were a series of dynastic civil wars between supporters of the rival houses of Lancaster and York, for the throne of England. The name "Wars of the Roses" is not thought to have been used during the time of the wars but has its origins in the badges associated with the two royal houses, the White Rose of York and the Red Rose of Lancaster. These socks were designed to represent each house, one being the red rose on a white background and the other, the white rose on a red background. The core of the socks have castle walls designed on them and little turrets at the top!
So this means I have 3 socks done (since the six sock post) although I started another pair (bad rowan) so I'm 3 for 7!
