Koigu Broadripples: Done!

They're done!

This is a self portrait, done by bending at the waist and holding the camera out from my body, hoping to catch my feet in the frame.

As faithful readers might recall, I ran out of yarn at the end and had to subsitute a slightly different color for one of the toes.

Can you guess which toe has the different color yarn?.

These socks were fun to knit, and I really like the feel of the yarn. I would highly recommend the free pattern. The ripple effect isn't hard - once you do a couple of rounds, you don't need to refer to the instructions any more.

Great job on the socks...and the photography! I can't even tell which sock has the substitute color. That worked out great! You knitter you!

I, too, am able to photograph my feet by sitting back in a chair and putting my feet up. Heh! (Gorgeous socks, BTW)

Those socks are great.

And thanks for stopping by. The Jester Hat is a pattern by Cabin Fever (www.cabinfever.ca) and I used a DK cotton yarn. I don't have the yarn label with me right now so I'm not sure of the brand.
