Socks, Blended



I MUST get batteries for the camera. Phone photos are lousy for color.

Yarn is Dyeabolical Alter Ego.
Colorway is Frogs IAB - that is, In A Blender.
Pattern is Wendy Johnson's Sunrise Socks.
Needle size 1.5, US.
Sock size, the smallest width, curiously.

Will be interested to see how the color holds and how the size holds.
As they are for me, there's no stress hidden behind that statement.

I forget when I started them, but they are done.

Time to get knitting sorted out for camp.

Half a year in, and this is the first pair of socks ?!?

Done. Socks for a second aunt who very gracefully asked if I might have time Some Time to knit her a pair of socks.


Not a problem.

Long time, no socks

Sock knitting returns:


Yarn is Cherry Tree Hill in Nantucket Red.
The color is less intense than pictured.
Figures, as the alternative picture was too washed out.

Discovered this Mystery Sock KAL at Ravelry. The pattern and knitalong are crafted and hosted by Through the Loops.

I'm on the cuffs. Not enough visual here to serve as a spoiler, though I'm happy to report I'm much further into the cuffs than pictured here.
