Dutch Heel

The Dutch Heel

One of the things I most appreciate about Nancy Bush’s patterns is the variety of heel and toe shaping offered. This one is new to me and creates an interesting underside. I am getting ready to do the heel on the second sock now so should be done soon. YaY for a finished object.

Also really really really love the colors of the Malabrigo Candombe.

This weekend, after I finish my sock, I will be doing a wardrobe change over. I suspect there will be some impetus to knit warm layers since I know my options are slim. I used to be quite the clothes horse. I had walk in closets stuffed to the brim until I was about 30. Somewhere along the line I just pared and pared and pared until it has become difficult to actually get dressed properly. Thanks to these socks I am envisioning a lot of purple and olive greens.

All the while working on my yarn caches which most likely are neither purple or olive green. The woe.

I have digressed from my admiration of the heel to musings about wardrobes. Sooooo I guess I just need to figure out what I am going to do next.
