Finally! My fifth pair of socks for Summer of Socks 08 are complete. The knitting was completed yesterday and I just kitchenered the toe 15 minutes ago. I am yet again happy with my new socks. Here's the stats:
Pattern: Charade by Sandra ParkYarn: Cherry Tree Hill Supersock Thin; Colorway - Blueberry SorbetNeedles: Knit Picks Fixed Circs Size #1.5Started: July 29thFinished: August 15th
The only modifications I did was to make the leg of the sock longer and then when it came to the toe decreases, I did the same amount of decreases but just in less rows. If I had completed the toe as written, I would have needed another half a foot to fill these babies. I love the color of this yarn. The pooling of colors makes me want to get some sorbet right now!
As true to form, I have already casted on for my next pair. Hopefully I will finish these sooner than three weeks now that I am back in good knitting form.
Cute socks. The color just screams dessert!
