Autumn in Oregon sock - singular ;)
I got to test knit the Autumn in Oregon pattern for Chrissy, which gave me a great opportunity to knit some socks for my friend Amanda and steal some of her yarn in the process. The pattern is available for purchase here, and there's a kit too.
I didn't have any yarn of the Autumn persuasion, which is probably not surprising to any of you. By chance Amanda said something to me about how she didn't know what she was going to do with her Fall Leaves color of Sunshine Yarns that she had, and an idea was born. I took the yarn (and Amanda's needles, in fact) and knit up this sock - the second one is coming soon.
The pattern, although fairly complicated, is pretty easy to memorize so it was a pretty quick knit. I might make another pair for myself in a more solid color, since I think this yarn is a little too varigated to make the pattern visible, but overall I'm pleased with the outcome.

Wow, that's really nice. I especially like the cuff detail!
I was just wondering if you've heard of the "two socks at the same time" method (I read about it on knitty) and if you had tried it I was wondering if you had any advice for me? I've only made two pairs of socks and have a "wishlist" for more sock yarn. Here's the article by the way:
