Socks!

I have been working on these socks on and off for a few months. I am glad they are finished so that I can wear them before the weather gets too warm. It will get warm eventually, right?!



The yarn is Cherry Tree Supersock in Serengeti. The pattern is Leaf Lace Socks from the Vogue Knitting: The Ultimate Sock Book.



These were fun to knit because the pattern changes depending on the part of the sock being knit. The back is in an interesting lacy rib and the front is a mirror image leaf lace pattern with a zigzag center panel.



Plus, the cuff has little, bitty picot edges!



And, as if that weren't enough, there is also a nice eye of the partridge heel. What a pattern!



Thanks to Charleen for passing this yarn on to me. It isn't a color I would have been likely to pick out on my own, but I really enjoyed the colors. Plus, now I will think of Charleen whenever I wear these socks.
