that's the sock i cast on for my knit in public attempt. i like every color in the yarn except the blue. from the look of the ball, i didn't think there would be so much of it. deceptive.
note the screw ups on the bottom rows. i don't really know what i was trying to knit anyway. i just wanted to try out the neat color pattern.
piecework december 1999 issue
i got that magazine from in stitches before they closed shop. i bought it just for the article on the mittens.
The mittens [...] are very typical of Estonian knitting. The pattern
is the traditional Oaoiekiri or Bean Blossom pattern from the
country of Rapha.
to me they look just like coffee beans, nice and simple. i hope to apply it to a sweater some day.
