are you tired of purple lace yet?

yeah, i thought so. i'm a bit tired of it too, so i decided to photoshop the first two of these photos so you can see the sock in different colors.

blue looks pretty good, doesn't it?

it's a short-row heel with a slip-stitch pattern and a gusset. it's a tight fitting sock (51 sts on sz 1 needles) so i increased to 59 sts since that area is usually the tightest for me. also, gussets are pretty.

this is the first one. i'm almost finished, i just need to do the ribbing and on the second one i'm almost at the heel. i really like this pattern.
