I started on a new project with a pretty zauberball that Ash gave me for Christmas. I did some two at a time toe up socks, and then I realized...
... they looked kind of boring. So, of course, I frogged them - even though I was about to turn the heel - and started again! This time striping the sock from both ends.
It went along great! I love the look of the two stripes! And then... this. Are those stripes!? They don't look like stripes!
I can just get over it. It doesn't look too bad! And then I noticed... you can see my "jogless" jogs! You have to look pretty close, but they're there. And I can't unsee them.
I mean, my life is going pretty well if the biggest problem I have today is the fact my jogs are showing.
Oh! And the name! I picked watermelon because the socks are green and pink, and waltz because each stripe is three rounds long. I'm really proud of my wittiness here :B
Zauberball definitely has a mind of its own. You just gotta let it do what it is going to do.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors. I do believe I have some of that same yarn in my stash.
What a difference the colours make being striped. You are one smart knitter!
ReplyDeleteYou've also got the alliteration thing going for you, which always makes a title more appealing ;)
