Picot in Snow

February 8, 2007 By Mindy

8 Feb

I mentioned previously that I had started a new pair of Jaywalkers.  Here is the progress so far.

You can’t really see from the pictures, but I did a picot edge instead of ribbing as called for in the pattern.  It was my first attempt at picot, and I am pleased at how it looks.  It was a bit fiddly to do, but it’s so pretty.  With the colors of the yarn, the picot edge just makes the socks overly girly, which I happen to like.  The yarn is a purchase from Maryland Sheep and Wool.  I can’t remember the name of the yarn, but I do like it quite a bit.  Good thing I have about 7 more skeins of it in the stash, different colorways of course.

    I really like the socks and I am not one partial to pink.

    The picot edge gives them a really nice touch.

    Love the new picture. Of course he loves his Mommy. ๐Ÿ™‚
