Dahlia Socks!
Here are photos of the socks I'm working on right now. I love socks with patterns that have just the level of complication that makes it interesting, but not frustrating. These socks hit that RIGHT on the money. The only issue I've had is that I was following the written instructions for a while rather than the lace chart and the first part of the sock (the leg part) isn't quite right, whereas when I followed the lace chart (upside down and in reverse, I think the pattern's a bit off there, could've used some editing), it's way better. Can you see the difference? I almost want to redo it, but I've got another sock, so oh well. The patterns is readable in the knitting as well now so I don't need to look at the chart very much at all. It's awesome. A big shout out to sundara yarns (http://sundarayarn.typepad.com/) and her Pedals of the month sock club. My friend Sonya and her did an exchange and I ended up with this cool kit. Thanks!!!!!

Can you see the difference in clarity of the lace?

Toe sticking through. Almost there...
