Earl Grey Socks

I’ve cast on for some Earl Grey socks… I was needing something portable and non-lacy… I like the pattern so far, but didn’t pick a solid color yarn that would highlight the cables. It’s not awful and I don’t think the recipient will really care anyway.

I’m using a US2 (magic loop) and Araucania Ranco Solid in a gray colorway. I agonized over which two skeins to purchase since they all appeared wildly different, even among dye lots. Hopefully the two socks won’t be too “off”!

I enjoyed those socks, and they were simple enough for my dad to like them (although I will have no idea if he actually, for real, wears them).

You were right though, we need a Cassie update :)

That yarn is beautiful–I love the steel gray color. But yes, pics of Cassie (and Maia) please! ;)
