The first I wish Daryl was here. sock is complete.
Pattern: Night of the Living Sock by Cambria Washington
Yarn: Dizzylettuce Claire de Lune – Lichen
The stripee socks were a little too small for Rebecca (I should have followed my knitterly instincts), so I started ripping toes to add a wee bit of length. one done. one to go.
…and then this lovely came in the mail (courtesy of Rebecca)
Space Cadet: Oriana 8-ply: Drizzle
It feels amazing….wool so soft it doesn’t feel real. Nothing inspires me to rework the toes of socks like fresh yarn! Well played, Rebecca!
Ps. Check out what others have finished at Tami’s Amis and Wisdom begins in Wonder and Natural Suburbia

You’re making me want to knit some socks! :)
Oh, you should, you really really should!
That’s what I like about top down socks – easy to tear back and adjust the size. Interesting pattern.

Yes, I do like the ease of making them longer with top down.

been there! :-)
The yarn you knit the green sock with looks very nice. I love socks! The grey yarn looks truly squishable.

The gray yarn is delicious to work with and will match just about any outfit.
Glad you got the yarn!

thank you so much! can’t wait to knit it up!!!
They all look fab, but I love those stripee socks.
And something about hearing you say you rip the toes out makes me get all giggly and stupid.
