Good grief Charlie Brown!

RepairWhat do you do when the power is out all day but knit a toe? I was dismayed to find I’d goofed half a row on the sole of the foot but decided it was not worth ripping back half the toe to fix it. On the front, however, I was appalled to see a glaring error. I find it so easy to see mistakes in this sort of colorwork that I have no idea how that escaped me but it certainly did. When I came to the end of the toe I repair the mistake with duplicate stitch before closing my toe.

Sock_one Here he is on the blocking board (thanks Michelle!) getting his beauty rest. I hope to cast on for sock #2 later today. According to my scale (thanks Rose and Carrie!) I may have enough yarn for another pair with these colors though I likely won’t repeat this same pattern.

  1. I’ve been watching these photos on flickr and can’t believe how gorgeous this sock is. Beautiful!!

  2. Despite the glitches, I’m loving the colours in these socks, and that gusset is the Coolest Thing around. :-)

  3. Very pretty. The heel/gusset construction really shines in this photo.

  4. Beautiful! I’ve spent half a day pairing solids and hand dyed yarn. :D

  5. I agree with Dave, the gusset is so cool. The sock is really awesome. Looks perfect to me!
