SOCKAPALOOZA!!!

Cascading Leaves sock recipe, Lorna’s Laces Shepherd sock yarn in Berry.
Well. It’s hot pink. It looked cranberry on my monitor. Dear Sockapalooza pal. I’m sorry, I couldn’t chance ordering another colour. You’re stuck with this. I swear it is a very fun colour in real life. If you really don’t like it, I’ll make you another pair. Not a problem. Socks are fun. But you cannot possibly dislike the pattern. Right?

Boy was this fun to knit. In fact it was so much fun, (after a month of Clapotis and no end in sight), that I decided to rip the rib and two repeats I had knitted before the ribs and three repeats shown in the picture. I love this pattern.

I met a friend for dinner tonight, and on my way there, I found this.

    yeah, if she doesn’t like them, can I also get into the recipient queue? Of course behind Kris and Collen since they’d asked first.

    Hey, that building looks like the old John Hancock building in Boston.
    The sock looks cozy.
    If your Sock Pal doesn’t like them you can send them to me! Just Kidding. : )
