Three more pairs of socks!

The Super Sock Scarefest of 2013 is over and I have 4 pairs of socks to show for it!  These are three more to add to the list.

Pattern-  Faces in the Wallpaper

Yarn- Kitting Fever Painted Desert 08

 

The color was interrupted/spliced on one of the plies making one sock more muted than the other.

 

Pattern- Swamp Thing

Yarn- Mountain Colors Bearfoot in Juniper

 

Pattern- Anna

Yarn- Cascade Yarns Heritage Silk 5648

Scary Socks and green dye.

Finished a pair of socks that was a pre-Super Sock Scarefest bonus pattern for the Ravelry group.  I really loved the way these colors turned out with the pattern and the socks are comfortable, too!  Pattern- The Thirteenth by Heatherly Walker.  Yarn- Patons Kroy FX Sock in "camo", 2 balls.

 

Also, the roadside wildflowers have been growing like mad this year!  This is what blackeyed susans in an iron pot will make on superwash sock yarn.

Socks for Dad and the TDF

Finally finished a pair of socks I promised my dad nearly 3 years to make; two to find the right color yarn and one to actually knit them up!  Pattern- Retro Rib by Evelyn A. Clark, from Favorite Socks- 25 Timeless Designs book.  Yarn- Dream in Color Everlasting Sock in Holly colorway.

 

A note about the Tour de Fleece on Ravelry this year.  To put it bluntly, someone I know has died on a motorcycle during the TDF the past two years.  It could be coincidence or something else, but I didn't feel like testing out "third time's a charm" theory.  I've done quite a few projects since my last post, but if I didn't get it on here then, it's not going to get posted now! =/
