Summer of Socks ’08: Pair #3

Summer of Socks pair #3 is off the needles. The pattern is my usual sock recipe but these socks definitely don’t look like my usual socks.

They pooled and flashed like crazy!

While I was knitting them I kept stopping to look at them, trying to decide if I loved them or hated them.

Turns out – I love them!

The yarn is Knitting Sunshine in the color Beach Day and the color blends look just like a sunset on the beach to me.

I wouldn’t want all my socks to do this but I have to say these were really fun to knit and, just like my other summer-y socks, they will be toasty and warm and a great reminder of summer once the-season-we-shall-not-name arrives.
