More Sockies

Still plugging away at sock knitting. I'm ready for something else though :-0

The single (red) is my current "Mystery Sock", this one is designed by Cookie A, who is a sock genius. I'm using Schaefer Yarn "Nicole" in the "Clara Barton" colorway. Too bad you hate hand knit socks, Katie, cuz this is a nurse color if I ever heard of one...

The mismatched pair are finished socks, which are about to become 'unfinished' socks. As you may be able to see, they are 2 different sizes. GAK. I must have used a different sized needle for the second sock. This is what happens when you put a project down for 4 months... Off to rip these suckers apart.

Love that it's "Clara Barton" color... maybe you can give them to Megs! ;) and i'm sad the pink ones were mismatched, they are so pretty! i hope you are remaking!

wait, can't you find someone with a little and big foot. There are still polio people around.

too late, they are now in two neat little balls awaiting re-knitting. And I guess I could have done that, but selfishly plan to knit socks for MOI, and both feet are pretty much same size :-)

Why is Clara Barton colorway red? I didn't really think that was a nursey color unless someone is bleeding out. I would have thought puke-green or diahria brown would have been more obvious choices for Ms. Barton...
