Off the needles



It seems I’ve been working on these socks forever but when I only work on them with my morning coffee it takes awhile. I did the seed stitch every time I came to the red stretch of color and plain stockinette on the purple and navy. In the beginning there were about 20 stitches for each color strip by the time I get to the ribbing there were 10-12 stitches in each color. It was fun to see the colors pool and move from slanting to the left then to the right as the color segments became shorter. The yarn is from Schoppel wolle and I bought it several years ago so probably no longer available.  —Ann—

It's very creative that you changed your stitch with the color change! I might have to try that. Thanks for the idea!
