Stripey Picot Socks

I've had a bunch of time to knit lately. Huge snow storms will do that for you.



This is the first thing I finished. It was actually a test knit of Carole's new pattern for picot edged socks. I loved it and I see many more picot edged socks in my future.

The yarn I used for these was the Kaffe Fassett Regia. I can't imagine why I didn't use this sooner. I had so much fun with the colors and, as usual, Bruce was fascinated by the self striping yarn.



These socks are purposefully, totally, fraternal because I think they're more fun like that. Once they were finished, DQ noticed that the stripes are realy pretty close.



As much as I enjoyed making these socks, I didn't keep them for myself. I sent them to my sister as a little pick-me-up and she says they hit the mark. They have a lot in common with my second pair od finished socks for this year. They're also not for me but perfect for the recipient. I hope to have pictures for a F O post soon.
