WIP: Variegated Twisting Lace Socks
This Work In Progress is a pair of socks from a pattern I've used before. It's from the Yarnspirations website, called "Women's Twisting Lace Socks."
I'm using a ball of yarn I got in a grab bag from Goodwill. It came without a label. The variegated colors are fun, and they pool delightfully to make a twisting stripe pattern. Most yarn crafters hate when variegated yarn colors pool, but I like the fun patterns they make when it happens, especially when it's consistent as in these socks.
This is my second sock. It's crocheted from the toe up, so this is the foot of the sock. I have less than an inch to go before I start the heel. My ball of yarn is growing small, but this is the second sock and I believe I'll have enough yarn to make it through this sock.
Here is the completed first sock. You can see the way the yarn pooled for the whole sock. The twisting lace pattern turns in the opposite direction of the color stripe formed by the pooling colors in the yarn, which makes for a more interesting pattern. The twisting lace itself is in double crochet while the heel and toe of the sock are in single crochet, making the heel and toe not part of the pooling colors.
I can't wait to finish these socks so I can wear them!
