Wow! I've been toying with ripping back my one grasshopper done in the wild tide and switching patterns. And since I am late to the RSC, I have not yet knitted up my monsoon. Your monsoon grasshoppers look great!


Wow, they look so comfy and airy! Fast to knit - I like that... Lately I've mostly seen lovely finished socks presented here. But hmmm, your next project doesn't look anything like socks. Looking forward to seeing what you're about!


The monsoon looks great with the grasshopper pattern! I'm using a different pattern for the silkie too, and the colors look so much nicer with a more solid pattern than the lacy grasshopper. Great job!


What also works is doing the wrap from front to back (instead of coming from the back over to the front). It makes it easier to pick up, and produces a nice looking mesh.

I like Monsoon in this pattern a lot!


Well, yours are definitely my favorite Monsoon socks yet. I love what you've done with the sock club stuff so far. Keep it coming! By the way, did you alternate skeins to get that subtle striping, or did the lace pattern keep down the drastic pooling?


Hey thanks for all the nice comments.

Holly- I never thought of wrapping the yarnovers a different way- I'll have to try that next time. I like the pattern so I know I'll make it again and again!

Julie- I didn't alternate skeins (too lazy!) but the yarn striped on its own, probably because of the different needle size.


The colorway & pattern look great together... I also like the choice you made w/ the inside outs & spring fling colorway.

What a great collex of shoes you have!


wow! These are great, of course they are a limited edition pattern
Chica, we still need to try to get together Have you been to TYF since they moved? It's great!


That pattern is perfect for that yarn. No weird pooling going on. I love it. Love the shoes too.


Wow, great idea using the monsoon for the grasshopper socks! The pattern looks really nice in that colorway. I agree with you on the Walk on the Wild Tide - it needs something more stockinetty


Nice socks......as always!
And I love your technical talk. It makes me hot. Also it is 100 degrees today, and I am wearing every knitted garment in the house. It's a new weightloss routine, since I'm out of SaranWrap. Gotta go drink the rest of my Sanka.
Love,
Your mother


This is a fabulous pattern! and so great in that yarn. Of course, like I have said before, I adore the shoes


Wow, I really like what the Grasshopper pattern did to the Monsoon colorway. Nice job!
