WIP: socks

I started another sock yarn blank. This one is one of a kind from Neeley's Knits in super sock in Thunder and Lightning. The top photo was taken after I knit the first sock. So I don't have a good photo of the entire blank.

I really love the colors in this one and how it's knitting up. It wasn't what I expected, but I feel that's part of the fun in knitting these blanks. I'm using the waffle rib pattern from my SKS book.

The pattern shows up a bit better in person then in the photo. The yarn does compete with the pattern a  little bit, but I don't mind because I really like the texture it's creating. And after knitting all those mindless socks, it's fun to knit a patterned sock, especially one that's easily memorized.
