Another Extremely Colorful Project

Since winter finally did arrive in Wisconsin, I needed another pair of thick socks. The pattern is absolutely plain Jane; but the yarn choice (1 strand of solid Opal and 1 strand of hand painted Trekking), well, the colors might help keep my feet warm all by themselves.



Of course, much of this brightness will be hidden under 1) legwarmers, 2) long johns and 3) jeans, in that order from the skin out.

BTW - a wave, a smile and a "Thank You" to all who have commented recently. After such a long time away from the blog it's nice for me to hear from you.

Pretty socks! I've done something similar with mittens and hats using one strand of worsted with a coordinating and colorful sock yarn. It just goes to show that sometimes if one is good, two is better :-)

I'm a huge fan of the plain jane sock - I figure there are so many nice sock yarns - I let them shine. Plus, all the patterning usually gets hidden under jeans or in boots...

Great color choices!
