Blown Cover
I am sad to say that I think that I blew my cover with my sock pal. That is why I have put away the pair i pictured here and began again. I am 100% happier with my product but can't share... yet. I'm looking forward to putting my goodies together and sending it off.

socks, marshmallows, lizards.
Now here is another project that I need help with. This is from the latest interweave issue and is the tuxedo top. I am discouraged because i have read how much many of you disliked this piece. But i love a nice loose airy linen top for summer. Something i can throw over a tiny tank to take my 16 year old son somewhere without him being embarassed. Its supposed to be in reverse stockinette but I decided to do stockinette with a small garter stitch border. I know the stitches will look more regular after a number of wash and dries. What do ;you think?

I have done it!!!! Here are pictures of my sockapalooza sock. The yarn is schaeffer anne - I love the bit of mohair in this yarn. After washing there is a gentle haze around the sock that i love. I probably bought 3 or 4 different socks yarns with the intentions of using it and then found this in my stash... fits the colors my pal wanted. Why do I never look there first?
This isn't the most professional of layouts but had to share my excitement...

socks create a blog!
Sockapalooza4 has done more than create lots and lots of socks (we hope) but has given me motivation to attempt a blog. Each day this week I will try something new. My little sock project will provide some interesting fodder. Stay tuned!
