Opal Follies


Here's an Opal sock I attempted to design by myself. I was going for the embossed leaf pattern because of the fall colors in the Opal skein (I adapted a pattern from Beautiful Knitting Patterns by Gisela Klopper). I did a two-color rib at the top (the solid is an Opal Uni). The sock, however, is way to small for me. I think it's even too small for Buttercup... So here's the pic, and now I can rip it out, rethink, and head back to the "drawing board."
