Here’s my latest pair of socks which I worked on while we were moving. There were such a comfort at the end of a day filled with boxes, unpacking and being surrounded by “unsettled-ness”. They are also the answer to my search for the perfect shade of brown. I don’ t think these pictures will do the color justice but trust me. I would paint my walls this color if I could…ok not really but I just love this shade of brown.
The new header came from this shot…
Pattern: Arch-Shaped Socks by Jen Showalter
Yarn: Malabrigo Sock Yarn, colorway Cordovan. This shade is now my ideal brown…love it. And the yarn…butta. I can see why this one is so coveted.
Needles: #1
Mods: I cast on 72 stitches, decreased to 64 then worked the rest of the pattern as directed. Mindless, easy, great fit and interesting without being complicated. Just what the doctor ordered.
That is lovely. I love Malabrigo Sock; it’s so soft! But don’t get too dependent on the color; it varies from skein to skein…ask me how I know!
Luv luv luv these socks esp. with Malabrigo
I have yet to get up the nerve to knit this pattern even though I printed it out years ago!!
I am still around and peeking in on ya
Keep on knitting for me…hoping to back in the groove by fall
Be Blessed!
