At last! A Finished Object!

I finished a pair of dark blue alpaca boot socks a couple of days ago. I really did take photos, but O took the camera to work with him to take pictures for "Pharmacist's Day" at the hospital. So, I'll have to wait until the camera comes back home to post them. I think Celeste and I need our own camera.

I have also cast on for another pair of socks, done in alpaca, in the "Thunderstorm" colorway that my niece, Bethy, made last fall. I plan on doing the ribbing at the top, the toes, and the heels in the same dark blue that I made the last pair from. I think it will be a good combination. Lemme see if I can find a photo of "Thunderstorm" somewhere on my computer...I think I took a picture in December of the yarn haul I brought from Woolyworks...

Searching...Aha!

"Thunderstorm" is the skein in the middle of the photo, with shades of blue, pink, purple...very pretty in the skein and in the swatch that I knitted up, it looks pretty interesting. I think it will be good with the dark blue.
