Couldn't Build A Fire To Save My Life

P1050826


The tiny, twisted stitches of Friday have started to turn and wrap around each other, this is (of course) Eunny Jang's Bayerische Socks. I know you've seen it before, because it's in 1,200 queues on Ravelry (plus the 250 already underway). Although I love this yarn (Sundara Sock in Heirloom Tomato), there's a little more stripey-ness to the color that I expected, and I'm not sure I really love it. I'd like to go a little further, though, before I give up. These Rot wie Feuer (red like fire) socks may become wristwarmers, or may end up in a different sock form. One thing is certain--all these tiny stitches take a lot of time.

What a beautiful color. They do take forever but the end result is so worth it.

It's a great color!

Those are going to be beautiful! That was my pattern of choice for the Sockdown Ravelry but realized it was going to take three skeins instead of the two I had. Stay the course!

I agree ... that color is marvelous! I await the decision.
