The Second Pink Sock

I finished the second pink sock yesterday - I didn't need a week after all. Actually I got up this morning and kitchenered the toe. The gauge is a little off from the first sock so it fits a little big. Not a deal killer and the good news is I am working the kinks out my sock process.

I did swatches of the kool-aid on the fawn colored yarn so I'll be ready tomorrow. I'm going with lemon-lime for the main color (green) and lemonade, orange and cherry for the dashes of color. I'm going to call the colorway autumn walk.

Because fawn in the base color the other colors will be deeper fall colors. Not necessarily the popping colors of New England. That is a later project when the knitpicks dye your own comes in.
