I just had to post about these socks, because they are just so wonderful! The pattern is a Mystery Knit-a-Long from the Knitters Brewing Co. Sock-aholics group on Ravelry. The yarn I used is a pretty gray color, from the Knitters Brewing Co. store called Greyhound. I purchased a kit for this KAL in December, which gave me the yarn, a pair of heart-shaped beads, a stitch marker, and Clue #1 to get started on.
The Mystery is that we didn't know what the socks would look like, and the pattern was released in 5 weekly parts. I was able to follow along, completing each clue each week, and once Clue #5 was released, I excitedly hurried up the cuff to see what my socks would look like. A
nd voila! A pair of finished socks! The pattern is just difficult enough to provide interest to the knitting without being frustrating. I love my finished socks, but the process was a blast! It really helps that the people in the Ravelry group are very helpful and encouraging. Even the back of these socks is interesting and unique! Here's a link to my project page on Ravelry with my notes and lots of pictures from along the way. Click on the pictures to see them better!
