Sock Love

I love love love the way this yarn is knitting up. The colour in this picture is not entirely accurate, because it is of course rainy and foggy today, but I like how different the yarn looks in the skein, in a ball, and knitted into a sock. So awesome!
For the terminally curious, it's a generic cuff-down sock with a picot edging and a ribbbed flap-and-pick-up heel. I've tried the short row heels, and they don't fit my feet as well as the flap kind, and to be honest, I love picking up the stitches along the side of the flaps.

Oh, they look so nice!
I can't wait to knit with the yarn you dyed for me :)
WOW! I thought I was the only one in the world who actually enjoys the process of picking up those stitches... how cool to find I'm not alone!
Wow, those look great! I'm glad the yarn is knitting up so beautifully! I also like to pick up stitches, I never understood why it was such a bother for people! :)
