The yarn I used was Araucania. It's from Chile, and like the wine from that region, it's nice yet cheap! I have another skein of this in a dark plum color that I'm not sure what to do with. The semi-solid colors in this sock is gorgeous. The pattern is Baudelaire without the cable. I did a short-row heel instead of what the pattern called for, which some purest would say that what I made was not Baudelaires but something else. Sometimes I like learning new knitting techniques, but that day when I got to the heel, I said "No thank you!" and kept it moving. In other words, it's my party and I'll cry if I want to!
Too bad I got to wait till October to start wearing them. Off to the storage bin it goes!

And who cares about you choosing the heel you wanna!! I would have too ;op
FAB socks!! And how kewl to have a Spanish reader!
Just gorgeous! I love that green green color.
Personally I always choose the heel I want. Sometimes I try new ones, but usually I stick to an old reliable! After all you are knitting for (1) your own pleasure and (2) your own feets.
