Houston, we have shift-off!!!
Success!
Anyone who’s perused my blog knows I’m not one for color work. I dig cables, and I almost always work off a pattern (excepting hats). So, as a color novice, I’m very happy that the Shifty Socks are beginning to look exactly as I envisioned.
They’re going to be black through the heel and then there’s going to be a reverse color change from black to red up the leg. Hm… once I get them done I’m going to have to get some clear shoes to show off the full color effect.

It reminds me of Windows 3.1.

Clear shoes, color changing socks and an ear light. Hmmmm….

Seriously… consider it. Could be hawt ;~)
And I actually found some shoes I think I need while searching for this photo again… I don’t know if that’s a good sign :~O

They remind me of how rollercoaster cars are painted…

That blue is workin’! I dig. Hey, are you using Magic Loop? Kim just taught me how to do it last week and I think it’s the cat’s pajamas.

I find myself unreasonably, impossibly excited by the prospect of these socks and projects related to them.
This likely means that I have been working too much. Proceed.

Those are going to be mega-groovy, my friend. I can’t wait to see them done.

I’m diggin’ those stripes. Can’t wait to see them further along.

Totally delurking here to ask if that is a Fibonacci sequence you are using. I really like how the sock is turning out.

I’m lovin’ those socks! You definitely need clear shoes, or at least Birkenstocks!
Here’s a link to the clear clogs:

Unfortunately, the clear boots have been discontinued.

Nice socks! Very vivid, and I’m looking forward to seeing the rest of them.

I am deeply, deeply distressed now. I love you. I love the socks. But clear clogs and a kilt…sweets, that is not a good look. That look does not say, “Hey ladies, come and get me!” so much as it says, “Laundry day.”
Again, I do love the socks.
