I completed the foot of the second sock and 1.5 repeats of the lace pattern on the leg.
The little leaves are less than an inch long and quite pretty, but they are somewhat obscured by the dark color of the yarn. The leg is quite stretchy, so maybe they will show more when I wear them. I think this will be a good pattern for the lime-ish colored Smooshy I bought in Seattle. When the leg is finished the effect will be of little vines crawling diagonally up the leg. Lovely design,
Anne!

the color is just beuatiful! And the pattern is turning out so nicely. I'm goign to have to try a lace pattern like that soon.
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous. I think the pattern will really show up well when you wear them. I've knitted a few socks like that, where the pattern doesn't show much until worn. The colors are great.
ReplyDeleteExquisite! Vinyard-ish and rich looking.
ReplyDeletethose socks are looking great! and yes, the pattern does expand when you put them on!
