Giving up on the funky socks


I tried and I tried but the color of the funky sock was not me... I unraveled it yet again and redyed it.. all purple. The yellow is not my thing, and I admit that now.. Oh well.

Funky Sock woes!!

I was sort of excited to be doing the wonderful Jaywalker pattern. Unfortunately I had already gotten to turning the heel when I decited to switch to the magic loop method so that I could try the sock on..... IT DOESN'T FIT!!! I know that the pattern yields a tighter sock because of the biased pattern, but it was so snug it would not go over the heel. I would not be able to get it on without ripping the yarn.... So...... I had to frog it and start over. This time I am doing it toe up. I have seen enough of the pattern to know that I want to have a pair of these socks. Wel, here goes.... Again.
