I dyed the yarn last year (apparently I like green), but have been hesitant to use it, since the base is the same as the yarn I dyed with easter egg dyes that faded horribly. If this fades similarly, I'll just dye it again, I think.
The pattern is Twisted by Jodie Gordon Lucas from the Spring+Summer 2010 issue of Knitty.

Your socks look great! The color is just lovely.
ReplyDeleteGreat colour!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm very into green right now and that colour is fab ;) I like the look of the pattern too, may add it to my plan for my second pair of socks!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colour.
ReplyDeleteWhat did you use to dye it. See if adding vinegar in very hot water and soaking to stablize colour. Sometimes works...
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty green. The pattern looks like a lot of fun to knit.
ReplyDeleteSocks are looking good so far! How do you like knitting them two at a time? I feel like that's a habit I should get into since I suffer from severe Second Sock Syndrome.
ReplyDeleteLove the stitch pattern. What a fun colour. I hope it lasts for you.
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed green, but everything here is with all the blasted rain we've had.
ReplyDeleteLove love love the color! Great job dyeing it! I'd be interested to hear how the color holds up. I have some easter egg dye that I have yet to use yet from this year.
