I really like this one, even though I only did two of them. I’d forgotten my lesson from mosaic 1 though, where if you want the center dot to pop, you need to purl the second row. As it is, the central light colored dot doesn’t pop too well, but I like it anyway. The rainbow is the Opal sock yarn again. I feel really lucky to have stumbled across that rainbow yarn at Webs, when visiting their shop in person. I’d originally picked it out for my mom, but as soon as I started this project I decided I had to keep it for myself, and get her to send me some black Opal sock yarn! I then proceeded to buy more of it, since it worked so well. For the blue and white (Alpaca Sox and Dye For Me: dancing toes) I decided to try knitting stripes every row. The pattern didn’t compress as much as some of the others, so I thought I might be able to get away with the every row stripes. You can see that the bottom is still longer than the top, though not as much as for the green and yellow herringbone (mosaic 2) socks. I think it worked fine-it looks fine on a foot, and so what if it doesn’t lay perfectly flat? It would if I could be bothered to block it…
