Blue Stripey Basic Sock

Crazy Daze Socks
This pair is the second of the sock of the month kits. Well, it isn't actually the second kit, it's just the second I'm doing. It's a mosaic knitting pattern, which I've never done before, and it's in quite fine yarn. The fact that mosaic/garter stitch (the pattern, on the leg and top of the foot) is much more vertically condensed than stockinette (the stripes on the sole of the foot) makes the sock scrunch up a little oddly and not lie flat. Happily, it turns out fine when worn.

Alas! They have worn out! It seems that non-nylon-reinforced socks shouldn't be worn around without shoes on a daily basis. Perhaps there will be replacements, after the booties are done. (For: Eon)
