I already posted this in my head...
I finished a pair of socks, finally!
Pattern: a highly modified version of Gentleman's Half Hose in Ringwood Pattern from Knitting Vintage Socks
Yarn: ONline Supersocke Savanne-color
Started: 5/25/08
Finished: 6/18/08
I'm still working on my goal of knitting all the socks from Knitting Vintage Socks, but from the start I decided that modified versions were fine since I have very few males to knit socks for. This is one of those cases - I took the Ringwood stitch pattern and plugged it into a pair of socks that is me-sized. The yarn is one that I bought on my trip to Seattle for sock camp and also a new one for me. While I was knitting I got a lot of comments on these socks - the color combination really is gorgeous!
The yarn itself is a fairly standard wool/nylon blend, and it's a bit scratchy compared to the 100% merino hand dyed yarns I've been working with lately. But - like the Noro socks - I think it will be perfectly comfortable on the feet and almost certainly hold up very well.

Very nice - great colorway!
I love those colors! I'll have to look for that yarn.
Over the weekend I finished my second pair of your (black)hearted socks. I love that pattern; it's my favorite!
and at the very least, the colours are absolutely stunning.
