Pattern:
Wendy's Toe-Up/Cat Bordhi's Riverbed master pattern for the arch, with
feather-and-fan on the ankles.
Yarn: Opal Cotton (#2505) -- cotton, polyamid,
woolblend, about 80% of one ball. Method: Knitting Completed: August
19,
2009.
This was a standard travel sock project. The pinks are very very
pink, but the total effect seems pleasant rather than
overpowering. I used feather-and-fan in the ankle to introduce
some waving (to reduce the striping effect).
Although fraternal, the
striping/colour shifting is muted enough that they don't seem garishly
out of line with each other.
