Bittersweet Socks Pattern

November 9, 2009 By

You might recall the Bittersweet Socks pattern that I designed for the Dye Dreams Four Seasons Sock Club.

I designed this to be their November sock, and it is now available. (As I write this, the Dye Dreams website seems to be down, but check back there if you are interested.)

This past weekend I did my annual trip down to Graves Mountain for a weekend of fun with friends

    The bittersweets are awesome! Love that pattern.

    And looks like you had a blast this weekend. Love the llama (or alpaca, or whatever it is. It’s fuzzy and cute)

    The sock is luscious! And Graves Mountain looks so inviting.

    I am curious, too, about what camera you use.

    Thank you so much, Wendy, for sharing your pictures. I could almost feel the crunching leaves under my feet and hear the splashing of the creek. Those alpacas(?) sure do look cute with their fuzzy heads and pantaloons.
