I started the Karate Kid’s socks last week and texted his mom a picture to see if he still liked the pattern.
The colors are beautiful but not quite for a nine-year old boy so I am going to redye the yarn in darker greens and blues.

Hopefully we will both like the bolder colors better…for a Karate Kid pair of socks.

How great you are comfortable with overdying. Agree darker probably better. I do like the pattern as I look for easy to memorize patterns for travel knitting.

I will try to save some of the original colors by twisting or tying the yarn so the new colors don’t overdye all of it, similar to tie dyeing.
