Presenting...

Rusted Root! Yay! Not the greatest picture but I had to pull my 14 yo away from his math to snap the shot (ya know - priorities). In hindsight, I wish I had gone ahead with the puffy sleeves but I'm still quite pleased with it. I love the lace and I'm sure I'll wear it a lot.

Now for a question... what about this sock? I just can't decide if I like it or not... I love the yarn - Regia Silk Colors and I like the colors in the ball and I really like the chevron pattern but I don't know that I like the colors knit up. (It was also my first afterthought heel and, while I'm impressed that I was able to pull it off at all, it has a few gusset gaps.) I'm just not feeling the love. I know they're just socks but they're driving me nuts. Do I just trudge along (wasting my now-that-school-has-started precious knitting time) hoping I'll like them in the end? Or if it's not just me and they're really ugly, will you let me know... or maybe they're just not my colors and one of you would like to give this yarn a shot? Let me know, I'm willing to pass it on.
