Lenore and friends

The sock mojo, she has returned.  I blame the L&V interview for sparking the interest, but the excessive stash may also be contributing.

First of, the BMFA club sock for October.  Her name is Lenore, she was designed by the Yarn Harlot herself, and I love her so.  My club package arrived last Wednesday, and these were on my before dinner on Thursday.  (It's that Mojo, I tell you...)

[she doesn't photograph all that well, but she's a beaut.]

Undulating Rib, also difficult to capture the beauty in photos, but trust me, it's there.  These are in some lightweight STR I purchased from a fellow Ravelry user.  The ability to shop from the stashes of others?  Brilliant, I tell you.  Please go send Jess and Casey some money now.  The blog will wait.

I've been getting the odd holiday order now that it's practically November.  The buyer requested socks for her daughters, and I was quite disappointed when she told me she was looking for off-white.  Well, there's off-white, and then there's off-white MY way!  I think these look like a patterned stucco ceiling, and the yarn, Patons Kroy sock, is nicer to work with than I recall from my last experience with it.  Pattern is, of course, Pomatomus.

The other off-white pair will likely be Loksins.

In what has become my fashion, I'm spectacularly behind on my blogging, so I'll cut this post short to go write another one.

I'm so glad that the mojo and the blog-jo has returned.

Happy Hallowe'en!

I love your new STR socks!!! I am going to have to make the pattern but maybe in red instead of the yarn we got. And you are right that the yarn doesn't photograph well.

I am glad that you got your sock mojo back! I love all your socks. :)

You are FAST! I'm almost at the heel of my Lenore socks - awesome pattern and beautiful socks!

Love your Lenores. Glad the Mojo's back.

Lovely socks.. the white or off white, look great
