with pretty hand painted colors
that look yummy enough to eat
Little 12" Addi circulars (3mm in this case) made all these socks a breeze to knit: absolutely no pausing for joins until I switched to magic loop to do the toe. Sweet!
The current sock in project is a bit more high maintenance: Pomatomus socks in Sock Superwash (colorway: Tosca). This pattern is just as addictive as Monkey, but it takes a bit more thinking, particularly at the start of the repeat and also at the middle, where you turn and start zigging instead of zagging, so to speak. I love the way the colors are working up. I was worried about how the tweedy bits would turn out. They mainly show up as little blips of a non-matchy color (orange instead of yellow, blue instead of purple, etc). Adds character, don't you think?
Five and a half weeks until Sheep and Wool! Mmm, ribbon fries here I come!

Love the socks!
Hey! How did you get the Sheep and Wool listing already? I haven't received mine!
They all look so great. Love the little blips of color.
