The Guessing Game

A couple of weeks ago I showed you part one of a project I’m working on and invited guesses. I didn’t get any, but here’s part two:

And part one again:

Last night I made a lot of progress on my Cedar Creek Socks. I’m up to working on the heel flaps. I’m working on both at once using the magic loop technique. What I noticed is that my tension has loosened a bit between the last time I worked on them and this time, because my stripes have gotten a little thicker. I’m also amused that through dumb luck, the stripes appear to continue across the two socks. So I took a photo:

Looking closely at this photo, I’m noticing a secondary striping in the greens. I hadn’t realized there were actually two shade intensities. But you can see it if you look for it.

    Found your blog via Zen Knitz. You have some excellent posts, I look forward to reading more. I didn’t have the ‘nerve’ to check out the article re: wool is cruel. I think that really depends on the sheep farmers and how the wool is removed. Our veterinarian has a sheep farm and she says that the sheep actually don’t mind being sheared, as long as someone competent is doing the job. I don’t know, I hope its true.
    I love the colors of this knitting in the photo above. I hope you will stop by Veggies….soon for a visit. BFN from Canada, :)
