Between several doctor’s appointments, bloodwork, and my two favorite medical tests*, I managed to find time to knit and photograph my finished project!!

Well, I decided to rip back the second sock and start it over with the other dye lot. As my grandmother used to say: If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right.

The socks are finished and I love how they turned out. I’ll get these socks to my sister-in-law asap. I will use the leftover 24 grams (out of 100) of yarn for something else where it won’t matter that the dye lots are different.

One might call these mullet socks as it’s all business in the front and a party in the back kind of like that 1980’s hairstyle. (I was going to grab a photo of a mullet but I just couldn’t do it.) I like the secret design running down the back of the leg.

The Curaçao blue is such an intense color that just draws you in like a deep pool of water.

The CoBaSi (cotton, bamboo, silk) yarn was a bit splitty but that’s just how cotton and cotton blend yarns are. I’m curious how these will hold up and hope they aren’t too thick or uncomfortable to wear.

Happy knitting!

*The squishing test and the “cleansing/probing” test. All is well!
