Never Go Back

I am completely spoiled now.
Beware, Beware. Never knit with ArtYarns 100% Merino yarn. Once you do, you will never be able to work with lowly, scratchy wool, ever again.

The blue stripy sock has been set aside, possibly for a very long time. This week I've been working only with ArtYarns yarns.

I've completed sock #1 of the Supermerino after much ripping and trying various heels.



Then started the toe of the second sock and realized that as much fun as this is to work on, it is quite brain free.

Swatching of ArtYarns Ultramerino commenced and continued for a while, trying something like 20 stitch patterns. None satisfied so decided to just work a toe anyway and wing it. Here's what resulted.
