purple leaves

Another project with Rhinebeck yarn finished!

Pattern: Embossed Leaves, from Interweave Knits Favorite Socks
Yarn: Shelridge Farm Soft Touch Ultra Solid Colors in Crocus, 2 skeins, on US 2.5 needles
Notes: Started out on size 2 needles, but soon realized the socks would be too tight, so I went up to 2.5. These would have been finished a few days earlier, except disaster struck just as I was about to pull through the stitches on the toe of the second sock. Luckily, Ariel came to the rescue, and I was able to finish the second sock yesterday. I really enjoyed using this yarn and I love the color!
