The Blinding Sock

pinksock1.JPG

It seems I can't get enough of Dalegarn. This sock is not Baby Ull, but Falk. And it is PINK. Can I emphasize PINK!!! The picture really does not do it justice. This is eye-blinding pinkness, which is why I've chosen simplicity in its styling, so I don't have to stare at it too hard.

It is toe-up with a black toe (although that disappears in the pic). And a black short-row heel. This picture represents about 2 evenings worth of knitting (while watching 90210!). Last night I got a bit farther up the leg before I needed to rest my eyes with Lilith.

I'm knitting these on size 3s so they are knitting up very quickly. I'm not sure how I completely feel about the fabric being produced. It is a bit stiff and has some of that squeaky acrylic feel (even though Falk is 100% wool, I think the superwash makes it a little less than soft). But no matter, I forge ahead in my goal to complete more socks this year than last!
