While I've seen some really nice colorwork using one solid color and one multi-colored yarn the autumn socks are unfortunately not turning out that nice. I've decided to keep on knitting them though because they are mostly mindless and a good accompaniment to all this baseball. I'm not knitting as fast as I normally do because I keep putting them down to stare at some new amazing development on the field - police in riot gear, injured bleeding pitchers, bitter disputes with umpires, and really long games hinging on the very last pitch on a full count in the last inning. Susan thinks the Red Sox are trying to kill her from all this stress.
In lieu of a knitting FO photo this week, here are the Halloween socks I knit last year. The pattern is from Blackberry Ridge although I used an orange from the stash rather than the gold they sent. I charted out the BOO! on top and had to sew the long floats in after I finished the socks.
