FO: Project Spectrum Jaywalkers
Ta da! Charcoal grey and white-striped Project Spectrum Jaywalkers:
started: 10 March 2007
finished: 21 March 2007
pattern: Jaywalkers (just like pomatomus: I think I’m the last one to the party)
yarn: Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sock in a self-striping purl exclusive colorway
needles: 2mm INOX dpns
notes: The Jaywalker pattern is great - it’s so easy and makes a very flattering fabric. Shepherd Sock is likewise awesome… why wasn’t I told about this yarn sooner? We’ll see how it holds up, but it’ll probably do well due to the nylon content. I made the leg longer than the pattern said to, but I have short feet so there’s always leftover yarn… even with this adjustment I still have a 3″ diameter ball left to make a pair of self-striping baby socks with:

Those are so cool! They almost look like they are shadow knit!

Wow, supercool socks! I love the Shepherd Sock. It’s definitely my favorite sock yarn and it wears really well. I don’t love their “striping” colorways, but after seeing these socks I may have to think again.

Those are the best Jaywalkers I’ve every seen! Gorgeous!
