I Finished A Sock

The first Jojoland Melody Toe Up Sock is done. It has lovely pastel colors. The two balls of Melody were acquired at different times from two different sources so I fear the socks will be very different. For example, the second ball which I bought recently doesn't seem to have any blue in it. Doesn't really matter to me though because there wasn't very much I could do with the one ball I had anyway. So my sock may end up very different but at least I'll have a pair.

This yarn reminds me a little of Trekking in the way it feels. It's quite nice. And the color changes are very long and subtle. The pattern I'm using is "Mash-Up Magic Toe-Up Sock Recipe" by Zhenya Lavy. I don't have the link handy but a search on Ravelry will produce the pattern for you. It is awesome as a general guideline for toe-up gusseted socks in many gauges and sizes. I've used it often.

And have I said I love my new camera?
